Nintendo has announced a new milestone for its downloadable Switch game Jump Rope Challenge. In just three days, players have recorded more than 200 million jumps worldwide.

Jump Rope Challenge, which was made by a small group of Nintendo developers while working from home in Japan during the coronavirus pandemic, was added to the Switch eShop this past week.
