The Nintendo Switch is the fastest-selling video game system in the US this generation, according to data-counter NPD. From launch in March 2017, through to November 2018, Nintendo’s hybrid console sold more than 8.7 million units.
You might remember Nintendo making a similar claim at the very beginning of 2018. But there was a key difference. Back then, Nintendo Switch was declared the fastest-selling console in US history.
Given Wii was the previous record-holder, there’s a good chance it’s sales of that old Nintendo console which now outpace Switch, but it’s a wonderful success nonetheless.
