Splatoon Crosses One Million In Sales

Nintendo has announced that their newest IP, Splatoon, has passed one million sales worldwide. Of that one million, 476,000 were sold in the Americas, 368,000 in Japan, and 230,000 in Europe, with Australia and New Zealand amounting to a further 20,000.

Nintendo of America's President Reggie Fils-Aime was understandably delighted at the news: "Ever since Splatoon launched on May 29 in the United States, we’ve seen thousands of people go online to have fun in this colorful, chaotic competition."

“This milestone puts us in a nice position as we prepare to launch 11 more exclusive Wii U and Nintendo 3DS games before the end of the year, plus amiibo, digital offerings and games from our third-party partners.”
