Nintendo has announced that its new portable platformer New Super Mario Bros. 2 sold 240,000 copies during the NPD's August reporting period (July 29-August 25). The game launched on August 19, meaning it reached nearly a quarter million in sales in six days. New Super Mario Bros. 2 came out of the gate running.
