November TRSTS Update
December 16, 2003 - In the race to be the best-selling video game this holiday, only one competitor can get the checkered flag.

According to NPDFunworld's November Toy Retail Sales Tracking Service (TRSTS), approximately 528,000 copies of Mario Kart: Double Dash!! were sold, easily besting any other video game on any system.
