Biggest Pokemon release in the US, second fastest selling game in Europe

Today is the day for us fair Australians, but the juggernaut that is Pokemon Black and White has already launched and left its mark on the sales charts in both Europe and America.

Nintendo America this morning announced in just one day it had sold over 1.08 million copies of the two games. That beats the previous record of 780,000 units in one day which was set back in 2007 with the releases of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl.

Europe wasnt left out either, with Pokemon White becoming the second fastest selling game on the Nintendo DS across one weekend, while, Professor Layton and the Pandoras Box still reigns supreme as the fastest selling DS game in Europe. However, if you combine Pokemon White with Pokemon Black, thats one almighty Pokemon force.

Pokemon Black and White comes out in Australia today, be sure to check our bargain guide and our huge review for the game.
