A bit more than 1-up

Nintendo's released updated sales figures for all its consoles, and it's certainly a lot of numbers.

The company's three current platforms — 3DS, Wii and the DS family — sit at a combined global sales figure of 264.5 million consoles sold. That figure's dwarfed by the software statistic: over 1.76 billion games have been sold for all three machines combined.

Here's the breakdown of where each console stands. Figures include sales up to and including 31st March 2012, but do not include games sold via download.
