We knew there was a demand for Smash, but the recent sales numbers announced by Nintendo have been overwhelmingly positive for the company in the United States. According to a recent memo, Super Smash Bros. has dethroned Mario Kart 8 as the best selling Wii U game of all time, with 490k copies sold in the United States in just three days.

The game has not released in Europe yet, so Nintendo still has another market that will likely be chomping at the bit to get their hands on the latest Smash. With sales of nearly half a million in only three days, Nintendo is obviously pleased with the title’s performance, as marketing executive Scott Moffit teased that Nintendo still has some surprises in store for fans this holiday season.
