And The Best-Selling DS, PSP Games Of All Time Are…

By Luke Plunkett on November 27, 2008 at 11:00 PM

…to be found within a report thrown together by Game Informer magazine, using only the finest of NPD sales data. Within, then, you’ll find the five best-selling DS & PSP games (in the US) of all time.


Here’s the DS list. Predictable in both its composition and its scale. No matter how many times you see those New Super Mario figures, it’s still a little mind-blowing.

And here’s the PSP list. Predictable in how, well, how sad it is to look upon. The handheld itself, it just keeps on selling, but looking at this list, nobody’s bought anything of consequence in a long time.

    @TalahRama: these figures are for america, not japan. if there was a figure for best selling 360 game in japan, i doubt halo 3 and gears of war would be in that one for the same reason.

    4/5 of the DS games were pack-in games, and with the DS usually being the number 2 or 3 selling console a month, I wonder how that figured into their numbers.
