This month’s NPD report brings along a rather impressive stat for Switch. Year-to-date dollar sales of the system are the highest of any hardware platform in United States history. Previously, Wii held the record for the year-to-date period ending April 2009.

Switch was again the best-selling hardware platform of April in the U.S. That goes for both unit sales and dollar sales.
