"Things you didn't know about Nintendo."

Then I read it, and knew all of that ...

Besides the obvious outdated things, Mario is way past that total sales number thanks to Wii and DS, more like 400 million now.

lol yeah I read it and I was like "wat, everyone knows half this shit already"... but it had some interesting things I didn't know, so all that was needed was a title change

It's still a pleasant image though. I never knew Miyamoto created all those franchises! :o

You're kidding right?

I can't quite believe Zelda sold so much, Pokemon and Mario aren't surprising though.

Yeah just a slightly outdated image too :p

Very outdated image.

E.g. When they say that the DS is the highest selling handheld of all time and have the iPhone at 41million. Well, the iPhone has now sold over 300 million

It's still a pleasant image though. I never knew Miyamoto created all those franchises! :o

Slight correction -- all of the iPhones combined have sold over 300 million. It would be as much a mistake to count the first iPhone with the iPhone 4 as it is to combine GBA and DS sales, or DS and 3DS, or all three. I suggest the first iPhone, 3G, and 3GS are one "generation" of iPhones and the 4 and 4S, which have twice as much RAM as the 3GS and almost double the processing power of the 3G if Wikipedia is to be believed, are the next. 5 will probably join 4 and 4S, but apparently it has a massive increase in RAM over those, so we'll see.
