After breaking launch records in North America and reaching over 1.5 million units, "Nintendo Switch" can now be declared a success. It has achieved this milestone in other regions of the world but most especially in its home country.
An update about "Nintendo Switch" tells that it had sold over 330,000 units in the Japanese market for the first two days of its release. Switch exceeded the sales of Wii U and PS4 but a bit behind the original Wii. This shows a good sales record for Nintendo Switch, which is considered now as one of the most popular devices across the Pacific.
After four weeks of its release date, Japanese sales tracker Media Create expressed its observation that things about "Nintendo Switch" are getting well. A report also announced that this device has sold 519,500 units in its home country, according to Dualshockers. That is as of last Sunday. This innovative media device trends way ahead of the PlayStation 4, which roughly overtook the half million mark within seven weeks.
Wii U passed the half million mark faster because it was released during the holiday season. It's higher sales record is credited on that factor but "Nintendo Switch" was released this March, so the comparison between their individual sales is unnecessary, says WWG.
Together with the success of "Nintendo Switch," the sales of its software are also continually doing well. In Japan, the "Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild" and "1-2-Switch" are second and third place respectively for most sold copies.
It can be recalled that several gaming distributors including Gamestop have been running zero stocks immediately at lunch. In fact, restocks are automatically sold out within minutes in the US alone. Recently, it was reported that Nintendo increased its production just to meet the massive demands of gamers. "Nintendo Switch" has surpassed the achievement of "Nintendo Wii" and it will continue to do so given the list of amazing games launching at the world's first-ever hybrid console.
