SEGA Europe has today confirmed that global sales of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games have gone five times platinum, smashing through the five million unit mark.
The title, available on Wii and Nintendo DS, sees characters from the Mario and Sonic universes coming together to participate in the official sports of the Olympic Games from 100m Sprints to the Hammer.
"With adored icons and fun game play, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games has shot to the top of the sales charts and is clearly resonating with the growing audience of casual gamers that want an engaging and accessible gaming experience," said Simon Jeffery, President and COO, SEGA of America.
"The market for entertaining games that everyone can enjoy is growing faster than any other segment in the industry, thanks in part to the explosive popularity of Wii and Nintendo DS," continued Jeffery. "A key element of our growth strategy at SEGA is to develop and publish games that appeal to this expanding market."
SEGA is also putting the finishing touches to the official game of the 2008 Olympic Games, due to be held in Beijing during the summer.
