Board 8 > Switch 2 has sold 10.36 million units after 4 months

(+) Yeah! (+)

Sold 4.84m in the last quarter. Previous record for 2 quarters was the PS5's 7.8m, so S2's way ahead.

Switch 1 sales are now 10,000 behind the DS to become Nintendo's best-selling system.

Bananza sold 3.49M. These sales go up to the end of September, so no Pokemon included.

Looks like it's at least on track to beat the Wii U.

I've noticed a bunch of Switch 2 as well as several Switch 1 systems locally at retail, so I suppose there's lots of supply for the Christmas season.

These numbers are just absurd. Its broken the record for fastest selling system of all time by a third of the previous record. All of which without a holiday season.

That's crazy considering how expensive it is (or I'm just poor).

They have a long way to go before they hit the previous Switch's current record of 104 months.

MK World has a 92% attach rate too, which makes sense given the bundle but is still notable.

TPC announced Z-A sold 5.8 million in its first 4 days, at about a 50/50 split between consoles.

It is expensive for what you get. But if you look at it as something like a phone which you can keep for 5-7years then it's easier to justify.

Sounds like no scalper issues with the Switch 2 then?

Neat, should be readily available whenever I decide to take the plunge, should be whenever the next Pokemon gen comes out.

I'll get it in 3 years when the new model comes out.

Was it ever a question that this was going to beat the Wii U? Unless you mean beat its lifetime by the end of the year.

I think they were just being cheeky.

Glad it's doing well. It's a good system with a good line up of games.

Its doing pretty well. I have one, but waiting for more actual Switch 2 games to come out still. Prime 4 isnt too far off at least

I would love to know the non attach rate for either any Mario or Zelda for Switch 1, see what elusive club I'm in lol

While true, I still haven't played that many games on my Switch nor PS5 either.
