UK: Mario Kart & Wii Fit sell over a million

Diamonds are forever

ELSPA has given Diamond sales awards to Mario Kart Wii and Wii Fit, meaning they have each sold over a million copies in the UK.

The award means the two Wii games join the likes of Dr Kawashima's Brain Training, The Simpsons: Hit & Run and GTA: Vice City.

GTA: San Andreas is also among the diamond dealers and took just 3 weeks to reach the milestone, making it the fastest title to do so.

ELSPA told Edge that some games that perhaps would have made the charts are not present because sales have only been counted since 1999.

Furthermore, each award goes to platform-specific titles, meaning that GTAIV is still only a double-platinum game on the 360 and PS3.
