Yarnton claims that the family-friendly console Wii has smashed their sales target for the UK, while the phenomenal Nintendo DS continues to sell like hotcakes - just 60 million units shy of breaking the PlayStation record. According to the exclusive interview featured in a current issue of MCV Weekly, Nintendo UK has sold close to 438,000 units of Wii in the past five months.

Yarnton continued, "It’s really hard to have targets – we have seen unprecedented demand. We set targets originally and we have definitely exceeded those. They are continually being re-assessed all the time." The full list of figures of Wii and DS sales across three viewpoints follows:

DS
  • Global: 40m
  • Euro: 11m
  • UK: 3.1m
Wii
  • Global: 5.84m
  • Euro: 1.3m
  • UK: 438,000
