The Humble Nindie Bundle has been a massive success - despite the lack of cross-region availability - and has, at the time of writing, raised $618,463.11 over more than 67,000 bundles.
If you needed any further indication of its popularity, you need look no futher than this week's Wii U and 3DS eShop charts. While Splatoon predictably takes the top spot on Wii U, the rest of the console's top 10 is dominated by Humble Bundle titles. The same story applies to the 3DS chart.

@Damo any chance we can see the all-time eShop ranking?
Good stuff, but I wish affordable space adventures was still charting. I really do feel like it ought to be.
Great to see such a big impact from the bundle .....it gives more chance of future options in the UK for a similar deal. Personally I'd love a similar thing for the vc , a selection of different types of games not just Mario x3, to allow me to dip my toes into classic games I know less about. I'd settle for anything resembling the current one though, great games for the price!!
any chance we will see a European bundle or something like this from another company?
All these are great deals on the website and can help those who don't have much to spend on games on the e shop. This is a handy website!
So Splatoon is over 60K in digital sales then?
They are charting but they are charting from the codes. Everytime a code is put in it counts as a sale. Now if a month from now they can keep the numbers they have here that would be great.
Impressive, the iron's hot Nintendo....don't let it cool off. Over the span of the year, we should get some more Nintendo bundles for different games.
Hopefully this is successfull enough for them to do a similar thing for Europe.
@Gerbwmu
I think that's fairly certain.
That is good as it gives more notice to those games...so those that didn't buy the bundle may purchase them.
That was interesting indication of Splatoon sales. At least, we know it sells decently on eShop!
I wonder how organised the Ebay code sellers have been with this.
(I hope that problem doesn't present itself until quite a bit later).
This can only mean Splatoon is selling very well digitally.
I'm a huge fan of Humble, and still feel bad for not buying this one, but I already have almost all of the games cept Stealth Inc. 2, OlliOlli, and The Fall.... :-
Post this on Splatoon news ; it sells more than $1 dollar games
Mighty Switch Force! is so fun, you guys.
@James_mussell98 They have to work with NoE for that to happen. Remember, games can have different publishers in each of the 3 major regions, thus NoA legally couldn't give away/sell codes for games they do not legally have the right to sell.
Every console store works this way. On Playstation, players have accounts for multiple regions to get around this fact.
Hopefully NoE will see it's success and decide to invest in it just as NoA have.
I have almost all of those titles, except Guacamelee! . I hope this will make more people aware of good titles on eshop that are not Marios.
I just got Earthbound and its my first RPG,(aside from Tomadachi Life's Retro RPG) it's been really good so far.
@maneauleau that would be cool.
Time for big N to check thier price list...
@Captain_Gonru - "I still have 3 more Wii U codes to enter, so maybe I'll hold off for a week,"
Just bought it for $10, I'm giving Guacamele code to my B-I-L, then maybe I can talk him into buying Splatoon. I'm holding off on the rest until the New Club Ninntedo goes online. Well unless the expiration date comes first, then I'll just wait until after E3. Maybe Joust. (whatever it's called now)
Ive only downloaded a few of the 3DS titles so far, because I basically bought Puzzles & Dragons at the same time and have been addicted to that ever since!
@bofis Stealth Inc 2 alone justifies the cost is the bundle. That's a great game that's worth every penny if it's $15 price tag. You can get it for $10
