Nintendo released the financial results for the Q2 of 2021 and despite the logical slowdown in sales, the Nintendo Switch continues to record very important numbers that prove to be one of the most successful game consoles in company history.
Specifically, from April 2021 to June 2021, another 4.45 million Nintendo Switches were sold, with the result that the total number has now exceeded 89 million units worldwide. This means that it has surpassed the total sales of the PS3 and puts a bow to leave behind the 101.63 million of the Nintendo Wii.
In terms of games, 2.07 million copies of the New Pokémon Snap were sold during this quarter, 1.69 million copies of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (total has reached 37.08 million), 1.34 million copies of Mario Golf: Super Rush, 1.26 million copies. copies of Animal Crossing: New Horizons (totaling 33.89 million) and 1.04 million copies of Miitopia. To date, Nintendo has sold 632.4 million Nintendo Switch games!
Given that new very important releases are coming exclusively to the Nintendo Switch, but also with the arrival of the new Nintendo Switch OLED model in October, it is considered almost certain that we will have a new launch in sales of both the game console and its games.
