Nintendo DSi sells 100,000 units in 14 weeks down under

Nintendo Australia today announced that the Nintendo DSi sold over 100,000 units in Australia during its first 14 weeks of hitting stores shelves. The data was collected by industry trackers GfK Australia.

In comparison to Nintendo's other consoles, the Nintendo DS Lite moved 100,000 units in 18 weeks, while it took the Wii 28 weeks to break the 100,000 barrier.

When it came to the DSiWare Store, Nintendo was unable to comment on sales of the bite-sized games.

The Nintendo DSi launched on April 2 down under, with the Nintendo Experience Store opening at midnight to let eager customers pick up their new console as soon as the clock struck 12. Some of the new features the DSi has over its Lite cousin include a bigger screen, camera, SD slot for storage, and access to the DSiWare store.
