European retailer GAME published its latest financial report this week. In the document, the retailer shares insight into Switch sales across the UK and Spain.
One big number is 469,000. That’s the amount of units that have been sold in the UK and Spain. According to GamesIndustry, this figure is roughly 49 percent of what the Wii managed to do over the same period, though one thing to note is how Switch debuted in March rather than the holiday season. It’s also 300 percent of what the Wii U sold. Sales have been steady and have only decreased during stock shortages.
The Super NES Classic Edition has been in much better supply compared to its predecessor, the original NES Classic Edition. However, that doesn’t mean units are readily available. Many consumers are still having trouble finding the hardware in stores.
Thankfully, as we know, Nintendo is handling the situation with the SNES Classic Edition fairly well. Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime told The Washington Post that the company is working to have a regular supply for the rest of the year. This also applies to Switch as well.
Following up on the European video from earlier today, a North American launch trailer has been posted for Pokemon Ultra Sun and Pokemon Ultra Moon. Watch it below.

When we first heard about No Heroes Here for Switch, the original plan was to have it ready sometime in Q1 2018. Something changed along the way, as we’re now hearing something different. Mad Mimic Interactive said today that No Heroes Here is officially slated for Q2.
