What are Nintendo's 10 Best-Selling Wii U and 3DS Games - 2019

from web site

As part of its earnings report, Nintendo updated its lists of best-selling Wii U and 3DS games to reflect the additional copies sold during the latest quarter. On Wii U, Mario Kart 8 still leads the way, selling 7.5 million copies, while the best-selling Nintendo 3DS title is another non-surprise: Pokemon X/Y, at 14.7 million units and  Benefits of Using free Nintendo Gift Card which helps so much.

So, we've seen Nintendo's latest sales totals for the best-selling Switch games, but what about the company's other most recent consoles. Naturally, sales for games on these systems are rapidly slowing down as new copies start to fade away from retail stores. In fact, the totals for Nintendo DS haven't changed at all from the last time Nintendo presented these figures last September.

The Nintendo 3DS put eye-popping graphics into players hands everywhere when it first released, and today, people are still purchasing units. Thanks to its popularity, Nintendo's latest handheld device and its larger twin (the Nintendo 3DS XL) have tons of entertaining games to go alongside them, and, yes, they've also sold like crazy.

Still, with slightly newer games like Mario Kart 7 still selling like hotcakes, games across 3DS and Wii U, in particular, have seen a small bump. So without further ado, here are the best-selling Nintendo-published games for Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, Wii, and Nintendo DS (correct as of Apr. 25 2019). Both physical and digital sales are included.

You can see the complete best-selling charts below. Note that the figures include digital copies, as well as those sold through hardware bundles and now, you can easily earn Nintendo Gift card for free.

If you've heard the Wii U name before but don't quite know what it's all about, you're in the right place. Video game publisher Nintendo has a new home console on the way, and we're going to run down everything you need to know about it.

While there are tons of incredible games created for the Nintendo 3DS, we're here to check out which titles have sold more than the rest. Unsurprisingly, most of the most-purchased games have come from popular series like Pokémon, Super Mario, and Animal Crossing, but let's not get ahead of ourselves just yet.

It's time to get your game on: here are the best-selling Nintendo 3Ds games of all time.

As the Wii U name implicates, the new hardware is the followup to Nintendo's popular home console, the Wii. But this name may cause some confusion, so let's clear a few things up right away:

  • This is an entirely separate device from the Wii.
  • The Wii U is not an add-on for the current Wii.
  • The Wii U's GamePad tablet controller does not work with the original Wii.
  • The Wii U will play original Wii games.
  • The Wii Remotes for the original Wii will work on the Wii U only if they are using MotionPlus (either built-in or as an attachment).


That should clear up some common misconceptions. If you're still a bit shaky on exactly what the Wii U is, that's OK. We're going to do our best to explain.

Here are the basic answers to the frequently asked questions:

  • Release date: Nov. 18
  • Price: $299.99 for the Basic set, $349.99 for the Deluxe
  • Pack-in game: Only with the Deluxe set. The Basic set comes without a game.
  • Backward compatibility: Wii U can play Wii games
  • Game cost: Most retail games are $59.99.
  • 23 launch games: Nintendo Land, New Super Mario Bros. U, ZombiU, and more
  • Wii-to-Wii U WiiWare and Virtual Console game transfer: Yes
