The 3DS's major fall title is very effective in terms of sales.
Super Mario 3D Land has sold 343,492 copies since its early November release in Japan, according to data by Media Create.
The 3DS's first major 3DS title has seen great success since it was released on November 3, 2011. This has also inspired a sales surge of 3DS units, which has seen a steady performance since it received its first price drop a few months ago. Media Create states that 145,271 units have been sold.
Several Wii titles have also seen solid performance in Japan. Kirby's Return to Dream Land (known in Japan as Kirby Wii), came in at number 5 with 55,779 copies sold. The Ubisoft developed/Nintendo published Just Dance Wii comes in at number 9 with 25,665 units sold. Namco's Go Vacation closes the top ten best sellers with 16,995 copies sold.
