TopicSwitch has now outsold PS1 & Wii

It seems like a distinctly opposite situation from what they faced with the Wii - that one started red hot but couldn't sustain it very well, to the extent that it almost felt like they rushed the Wii U out the door. Now, Nintendo has the option to milk Switch longer than they probably planned for, and the fact that PS5/Xbox production shortages are expected to last at least another year gives them even more room to stretch. I really doubt they want to release a brand new console after seeing how Sony and Microsoft are struggling to get their new machines produced.

For fun, here are the Wii's annual numbers:

Wii Sales (101m)
2006 - 3m
2007 - 17m
2008 - 25m
2009 - 23m
2010 - 17m
2011 - 10m
2012 - 5m
