According to research done by SuperData, Nintendo has so far managed to sell 1.5 million Switch systems worldwide. 500,000 systems were sold in the US, 360,000 were sold in Japan and Europe “isn’t far behind”, though it should be noted that most of these numbers are from first week sales, so they’re likely higher by now. Nintendo’s goal is to sell 2 million units in March, a goal they will likely easily achieve.

Unsurprisingly, the best-selling Switch title so far is The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. According to SuperData, 89% of Switch owners also bought the new Zelda game, which would equate to 1.34 million copies sold.

Four new CPSIA certificates have popped up on Nintendo’s website. The full set received dates of March 6.

Based on the filings, it would seem that these are all tied to the Smash Bros. amiibo line in one form or another. The figures are known to start with “AA”, and as it turns out, that’s what these new ones have as well.

We’re still waiting on Bayonetta, Cloud, and Corrin to release. It’d be certainly be nice if Nintendo had something to say about when we’ll be getting these figures.

Amazon has posted the boxart for Minecraft: Story Mode – The Complete Adventure on Switch. You can also pre-order the game here.

On another note, Amazon lists the package for June 27. It seems somewhat like a placeholder, but it’s not entirely crazy since that would be a Tuesday. We’ll let you know if we hear anything official from Telltale.

When you walk up to a decayed Guardian in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, you can obtain various Ancient Parts. However, players can receive even more by using a special trick.

Here’s a look at the trick in action:
