Nintendo Switch 2 Sales Numbers Are Already Breaking Records After Launch
Nintendo Switch 2 Sales Reach Over Three Million Units Globally
The Nintendo Switch 2 officially launched on June 5. It came in both a base model and a Mario Kart bundle. Fans had been waiting years for a new Nintendo console. Pre-orders sold out almost instantly before release. Now, multiple reports suggest Nintendo Switch 2 sales have already hit over three million units on day one.
GameStop and Walmart ran out of stock almost immediately on June 5. Target followed just one day later. Even before launch, “out of stock” signs were spotted at stores. Nintendo likely expected this overwhelming demand. Twitter source Nintendo Prime shared the three million unit estimate. The post cited multiple industry insiders. Nintendo has not officially confirmed these numbers. Still, insiders say Switch 2 demand is exceeding all expectations.
Nintendo Switch 2 May Outpace PS4 and PS5 Launch Records
The PS4 held the record for launch day sales with one million units sold in 2013. That record might be broken. The Switch 2 could surpass the two-month sales total of 4.5 million, set by the PS4 and PS5. ales momentum seems strong. Fans are still trying to buy the new system online and in stores. Nintendo is reportedly ramping up supply to meet demand. More consoles could arrive in stores very soon.
Nintendo Switch 2 sales are following in the footsteps of the original Switch, one of Nintendo’s best-sellers ever. It ranks just behind the Nintendo DS and PlayStation 2 in lifetime global hardware sales. If demand continues, the Switch 2 could become Nintendo’s top-selling console of all time.
