Miyamoto's fit-em-up becomes Nintendo's fastest selling title in the UK...
It seems nobody can put Nintendo down at the moment. Still smiling after its success with Mario Kart Wii, the Japanese giant today celebrated further triumphs with confirmation that Wii Fit has shot to the top of the UK charts.
Eclipsing the success of Mario Kart Wii, Wii Fit becomes Nintendo's fastest selling title in the UK, notching up sales reported to stand at 1 in 10 Wii owners, approximately 250,000 copies. This figure has generated approximately £16.3 million in sales during the first two days of release, making it the third largest UK launch behind Halo 3 (£16.9 million) and GTA: San Andreas (£24.2 million).
Despite a significant decrease in sales, Nintendo also holds onto the second spot with Mario Kart Wii, marking the first time in five years since Nintendo has held the top two spots.
Of course, all of this will be irrelevant next week when the beast that is GTA4 finally explodes onto the charts.

The Wii is great. The Wii Fit helps keep me active. Even though it is not as good as playing an actual sport, its a good alternative.
