Nintendo has announced that the popular DSi handheld has hit a new milestone this week, 1 million units sold in Europe.
The DSi is 12 percent thinner than its predecessor, the DS Lite with 17 percent larger screens. It touts two video cameras, web browsing abilities, music playing and an SD-card slot.
In the same period, the cheaper DS Lite continued to sell well, pushing 500,000 sales in the same period in Europe. In comparison, the Lite sold 1 million in the region in 13 weeks, meaning the DSi is selling at a much faster clip.
The DSi recently broke records for handhelds sold in a month in the US.
