Sega must be very happy with Sonic this generation on Nintendo platforms:

Wii

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games - 6.66 Million

Sonic and the Secret Rings - 2.1 Million

Sonic Unleashed - 750k

Sonic Riders Zero Gravity - 700k

DS

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games - 3.9 Million

Sonic Rush - 2.5 Million

I guess when you add Mario, Sonic and a Nintendo console.. You get HUGE sales

Two new Mario games have been released since last update: A re-release of Mario Tennis for Gamecube, and Mario and Luigi RPG 3. Both look like they will continue the million-selling trend.

I expected the 100m barrier to have been crossed, but it looks like some games have been treading water due to earlier overtracking.

"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
