Nintendo Wii U sales top 460,000 in December

The latest report from Nintendo shows that total sales for the Wii U in December have topped 460,000 units. Nintendo have generated around $300 million from American sales of the console.

Nintendo sold 2.65 million units in December and they also sold 580,000 copies of New Super Mario Bros. U.

Nintendo America's Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing Scott Moffitt delivered a statement which read “While the Wii launch established new benchmarks in the United States, Wii U has surpassed its predecessor in perhaps the most important category: revenue generation. The demand for the Deluxe SKU, which was essentially sold out at retail this holiday, and the strong attach rate of New Super Mario Bros. U, shows that we have the value and the games to drive momentum in 2013.”

Kitguru says: Lets hope they can release some AAA titles in 2013.
