Making a splash
Sweet taste of success
Halfbrick Studios' Fruit Ninja Kinect was the fourth best-selling game on Xbox Live Arcade in 2011, according to Major Nelson.
The sensor-exclusive game outsold hits like Bastion, From Dust and LIMBO to take the fourth spot. Major Nelson says the stats only count "full versions purchased", but there's no clarification if it also includes the copies given away with The Gunstringer or the Kinect sensor bundle. Either way, a Kinect game at number four in the XBLA charts is good news indeed.
Here's the complete top 20, based on full versions purchased:
1. Pinball FX2
2. Full House Poker
3. Castle Crashers
4. Fruit Ninja Kinect
5. From Dust
6. Trials HD
7. Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012
8. Dead Rising 2: Case West
9. Torchlight
10. Toy Soldiers: Cold War
11. Plants vs. Zombies
12. Portal: Still Alive
13. Bastion
14. Limbo
15. Game Room
16. Dead Rising 2: Case Zero
17. Peggle
18. Dungeons & Dragons Daggerdale
19. Battlefield 1943
20. Beyond Good & Evil HD

Fruit Ninja is easily one of my favorite 360 games, period. Right up there with Gears of War 3 (my personal fav). I can easily chew up a couple of hours.

Fun stuff...
No surprize with C.C. being higher though.
