Nintendo Switch

According to the latest NPD report, total lifetime dollar sales of Switch hardware have surpassed the DS in the United States. The system is now Nintendo’s second best-selling platform in U.S. tracked history. Only the Wii ranks higher.

It’s also worth mentioning that Switch is currently the seventh best-selling hardware platform in lifetime U.S. dollar sales.

In February, Switch was again the best-selling hardware platform in both units and dollars in the U.S. The console’s unit and dollar sales were the highest for any hardware platform in a February month since the Wii in February 2009.
