And The Top-Selling Games In Australia For 2008 Were…

By Dr. Eleanor Vance | Published on January 01, 0001

Yeah, it’s April 2009. So what, things move slowly down here. Which is why we’re only just getting our hands on the list of the ten best-selling games in Australia [[link]] for 2008.

And, surprise [[link]] surprise, it’s dominated by [[link]] Nintendo titles. Five of the ten are published by Nintendo, and two more involve Nintendo characters and are for Nintendo systems. Only both Grand Theft Auto IV versions and a World of Warcraft expansion could hold off the advancing red (well, grey) tide.

Course, that Nintendo domination of the young, female and old also explains why the Aussie market grew by a whopping 47.8% in 2008, with 26.7 million games sold in the country contributing to total industry revenues of AUD$1.96 billion (USD$1.37 billion).
