The Nintendo DS has set a new weekly record for hardware sales in the UK, beating its own record from last year.

yay for the DS :)

sexy, what was the previous record?

212k was the previous record. Keep in mind that this includes launch weeks. So DS sold more this week than the PS3 or PSP or 360 did the week they launched, for example. And this is just another week in the life of the DS (albeit a holiday one).

cool itll be one more next year as im gona buy me a dsi!

great, so when they stay a little bit more, we can assume around 230k for the week?

DS is the real shit!

So it sold more than 200k last week looking at this news piece from last year:

NoA really needs to target the older adults like they have in the UK. DS sales could be a lot better in the US.

I-it's doing pretty okay...?
