Sales of the mighty Nintendo 3DS are truly starting to grind to a halt now, but software sales continue to trickle in as the transition to Switch continues to take place.

We've already looked at the top ten best-selling Switch games earlier today, but let's now shift our attention to the 3DS for old times' sake. It probably won't come as much of a shock that Mario Kart 7 is still in pole position, and it actually sold around 300,000 copies in the last six months.

The following list shows the best-selling Nintendo-published 3DS games as of 31st December 2019, with both physical and digital sales included:
