    Scribblenauts Spells Sales Success In September

    Though it didn't make an appearance in the NPD Group's top ten bestselling games in the U.S. for September, 5th Cell's innovative Nintendo DS game Scribblenauts conjured up impressive sales.

    According to NPD data released today, the Warner Bros. Interactive-published DS game sold nearly 194,000 copies in its first month on the market. That puts it behind Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days as the third bestselling DS game for the month.

    Scribblenauts was one of only two third party games to make it into the top ten bestselling games for Nintendo's portable platform, a list dominated by Nintendo-published fare. While 5th Cell may already be hard at work on a new Xbox Live Arcade game, surely they won't leaving money on the table by not producing a sequel, right? Right!
