171,445 Switch players have connected to the Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled online leaderboards. That’s according to the game’s official counter, which displays the number. The top platform in terms of players who have connected to the leaderboards is PlayStation 4 at 1,017,723. Xbox One follows next at 240,000 players.
While this data is interesting, it’s not exactly the best way of determining the sales of Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled. For one thing, those who have not connected online are not accounted for here, so keep that in mind.
