We ran a story previously this month about how around the world sales of the Nintendo Switch were in line with the mighty NES (since 30th June) – with both sitting at 61 million.
At the time, all we might go off was Nintendos latest financial profits report, and now weve got some additional data that appears to verify it has actually surpassed NES sales (as anticipated).
According to weekly sales from Famitsu, hardware sales for July and August in Japan verify the Switch has now shifted more than 62 million units (62,035,250 units, to be exact), however this isnt even considering the sales over the very same months in other regions. Apparently its done well in the US.
This makes the Switch Nintendos second very popular home console ever. Out in front is the Wii – with an overall of 101.63 million sales to date. Have you contributed to these Switch sales? Inform us down below.
