Mario Kart and Wii Fit top a million

MCV Staff 28th November 2008 Business News

Mario Kart Wii and Wii Fit have notched up one million sales each in UK, earning ELSPA’s Diamond sales award.

The Nintendo titles join Dr Kawashima’s Brain Training, The Simpsons: Hit & Run and GTA: Vice City – all of which have racked up over a million UK sales. Rockstar also has GTA: San Andreas in the millionaires club, which became the fastest title to make a million sales in just three weeks.

However, GTA IV hasn’t made the Diamond award as it’s only granted to platform-specific titles. As GTA IV is available on Xbox 360 and PS3 the title has had to make do with being a double-platinum award.

Thanks to PlayTM.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
