The sales data comes courtesy of Famitsu via Nintendo Enthusiast, where they rolled out a chart for the top 10 best selling games of 2013 in Japan. Guess who dominated the chart from start to finish save for one game? Nintendo.

The Wii U was up on the charts alongside the 3DS for majority of it, and you can see where Pokemon X/Y leads the pack.

1: Pokemon X / Y – 3,976.829
2: Monster Hunter 4 – 3,923,312
3: Animal Crossing: New Leaf – 1,730,182
4: Friend Collection: New Life – 1,580,067
5: Dragon Quest VII Remake – 1,227,377
6: Puzzles and Dragons Z – 1,005,697
7: Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon – 982,737
8: Grand Theft Auto V – 605,882
9: New Super Mario Bros. U – 584,479 (including bundles)
10: Wii Party U – 518,776 (including bundles)

The numbers are very telling, especially considering that if you look anywhere else on the net you'll see nothing but “Nintendo is dying” and “Fire Iwata!” from the pundits, analysts, console warriors and armchair mercenaries.
