Forums - Nintendo - Smash Bros 3DS has sold nearly 3 million!

Tagged games:

So apparently lots of websites are reporting that the latest Smash Bros entry and first on any handheld has sold 2.8 million units!!

“Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS is already in the hands of more than 2.8 million people worldwide, and the road ahead looks great," Nintendo marketing executive Scott Moffitt said in a statement. "Nintendo’s holiday software lineup is more than impressive, and our amiibo figures start a new chapter in the world of Nintendo interactive entertainment. With so many great experiences available, this holiday season is going to be an amazing time to be a Nintendo fan."

It has been almost a week since it's western launch and seems to have sold over 1million already.

Exact numbers remain to be seen, but the Smash train seems to be on fire.

Will it continue to sell all the way up to Christmas?

Will the Wii U version sell well too?

Either way, very promising start.

I was at 2 stores in Germany and both received tons of Smash games (60+) but they said that the game sold out in both stores on Saturday.

It was the first time I ever saw a 3DS game sold out. And then at two stores lol

Sold out at my walmart! But that was easy since the only ordered 6 copies I think.


Aren't you the manager there Spurge? 

Should have ordered more. Nintendo needs you to make them money!

I don't do initial orders, but I can order more once items sell out!

Good, we need more of your "how to train your dragon" heroics to save Nintendo



Not bad. Not bad at all.

Either those are shipped or VGC preorder numbers are absolute nonsense
