Microsoft's Xbox LIVE Arcade achieved record breaking sales last year, totaling $144 million in revenue for 2011. 

According to data sent out by analyst firm Forecasting & Analyzing Digital Entertainment, XBLA saw an 18% year-over-year increase in title growth.

Paving the way in sales was Ubisoft's From Dust which reportedly sold 308,000 copies and earned an estimated $4.6 million in revenue, as well as The Behemoth's Castle Crashers which also earned an estimated $4.6 million from 335,000 units sold.

Neither of those titles were the most sold, however.  That belonged to Full House Poker from Microsoft Game Studios, but thanks to it's $9.66 price, it earned $3.6 million - still not a bad number.
