The latest Nintendo Switch sales: 10 million worldwide

Switch sales have hit an impressive 10 million worldwide in just nine months.

Latest Nintendo Switch Sales – Switching It Up

The Nintendo Switch has almost beaten the Wii U’s total lifetime sales (13.56m). Let that sink in for a moment. That’s nine months vs five years on sale. In fact, the total number is very similar to the PS4’s first nine months on sale, and we know how well that’s doing.

There’s a serious chance then, that the Switch will outsell the Wii U in a single year – such is the pace of the ongoing sales.

Nintendo, as you can imagine, is pleased with the news and posted this charming tweet:

Next year the Switch will bring with it a new Yoshi game, a new Kirby game, a new Pokémon game, Bayonetta 3 (probably), Metroid Prime 4 (probably), we imagine more impressive indie titles, and hopefully, a few surprises to keep the momentum going. A new Star Fox game we can be proud of would be nice too – sorry Miyamoto!
