Japanese LOVE Animal Crossing: Wild World

By all accounts, Nintendogs was a HUGELY successful game. Nintendogs sold 168,000 in its first week alone. Definitely not too shabby for Nintendo’s touch screen portable. Not too shabby that is, until Animal Crossing: Wild World came along.

Animal Crossing: Wild World managed to sell 325,466 copies in it’s first week of release. That is nearly double the amount of first week sales for Nintendogs. Animal Crossing: Wild World also boosted the sales of the DS itself, brining a weekly total to over 160,000.

I cannot stress how important the release of Nintendo’s wifi connection is to the world of Animal Crossing. It was the thing Animal Crossing fans have been begging for, and with its inclusing in Wild World, the title is bound to smash sales records. Congrats Animal Crossing: Wild World! Here’s to smashing sales records everywhere!
