Ubisoft tells GamesIndustry.biz that Just Dance 2 has sold a million copies in the UK. Not exactly the most surprising news to folks who have taken note of the Just Dance franchise's stalwart presence on Chart-Track's weekly top sellers list.

Just Dance 2 may not have brought in the headline-grabbing launch figures when it debuted last October, but much like its predecessor, it has consistently performed in the UK and in the States. Ubisoft's dance titles, which include Just Dance, Just Dance 2, Just Dance Kids, Michael Jackson: The Experience and Dance on Broadway have been shaking player's booties, while the company has been shaking the money tree.

Judging from Ubisoft's earnings, we feel pretty confident in saying that you have a copy of Just Dance 2 in your house. Yes, you. The teeming millions of Just Dancers should be thrilled to know about the new Valentine-themed DLC available on the Wii Shop -- especially as a welcome break from Katy Perry's "Firework."

The three new tracks all feature Duet choreography (and, coincidentally, duet vocals!). For 300 Wii Points each, you can download "Why Oh Why" by Love Letter, "Can't Hurry Love" by The Supremes, and "American Boy" by Estelle and Kanye West. We might be a day late alerting you about this holiday-themed DLC, but if we prevented just one person from giving Just Dance 2 DLC as a "romantic" gift, it was worth it.

Dance with your sweetheart.

Each song is 300 Wii Points… - American Boy by Estelle feat.

You know how we're always bemoaning the lackluster sales of third-party Wii titles such as MadWorld, Little King's Story or either No More Heroes game? Well, at least we have one success story to report on: Just Dance 2. Ubisoft announced today that it has struck platinum with a non-Nintendo game on the Big N's console, selling five million copies globally since October 12. (We saw this one coming about, oh, three weeks ago.)

Nintendo of America boss Reggie Fils-Aime even used the milestone to urge on skeptical third parties, saying, "The strong performance of Just Dance 2 is a perfect example of the potential that can be achieved by an independent publisher like Ubisoft in delivering irresistible content for the Wii system." That's it, then -- other publishers can finally stop worrying about their games selling on Wii. So bring on those Epic Dancing Mickeys, Dance Space: Extractions and A Boy and His Dancing Blobs, already!

Series to date has sold over 10 million units.

January drought continues chart stagnation. Bring on the new releases!

Following up on the estimated 2 million combined unit sales of Just Dance 1 and 2 in the UK, as calculated by MCV, we contacted market research firm NPD to see how the series has performed at US retail. According to NPD data, the Wii-exclusive Just Dance and its sequel have already combined to sell approximately 3 million units in the US.

These sales revelations may be a surprise to anyone who doesn't religiously follow our weekly UK sales post, but the Just Dance franchise has been a stalwart sales leader all year in the UK, and also, it would seem, in the less frequently tracked US market (we have seen it pop up on the charts over the months). It may not capture headlines, but Ubisoft's dance series has consistently performed at a high level on a platform that's not exactly accommodating toward third parties.Just Dance series sales have combined for an estimated 5 million units in US & UK

Gran Turismo 5 raced into first place on the UK sales chart last week, becoming the sixth largest PS3 launch ever in the region. In a good sign for the oft-delayed franchise installment, sales were up 6 percent from Gran Turismo 4's launch week numbers in March 2005 on the PS2 (according to Chart-Track).

Call of Duty: Black Ops and Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood both took one step back this week, grabbing silver and bronze, respectively. CoD:Blops dropped another 42 percent in sales two weeks after its record-setting premiere, while AC:B slipped off a Borgia tower, but caught itself 32 percent of the way down.

FIFA 11 took the fourth spot with a sales surge, and fifth belongs to... yup, loyal chart watchers, you got it: Just Dance 2 is unstoppable as it waves its arms in the air, selling copies like it just don't care. As for debuts on the chart that didn't go vroom-vroom, Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare shambled in at 14, while Ubisoft's Michael Jackson: The Experience had the late king of pop make one duke-y of a debut down at 38.
