3DS becomes Australia's fastest selling console ever

It's a 3DS, mate.

"That's not a handheld ... this is a handheld." We can only imagine this sentiment is being echoed around Australia, as new 3DS owners show off their console to the poor souls still clinging to their PSP or DS. Gamasutra reports that Nintendo has revealed that its new 3D handheld has become Australia's fastest selling console in history, selling through 200,000 units in 37 weeks. Previous Australian records belonged to the DS family and, before that, the Xbox 360.

Another Australian record of note: Men At Work's seminal Business As Usual.
