Switch sales have surpassed 25 million units sold in Japan, data from Famitsu has revealed. It goes without saying, but that’s based on units moved since March 3, 2017. The specific number is 25,010,404 units.
The original Switch model has obviously been around the longest, so it’s no surprise that this is what has largely contributed to the total. Here’s a breakdown of sales by model:
– Switch: 18,379,851 units
– Switch Lite: 4,754,257 units
– Switch OLED: 1,876,296 units
That’s not the only information from Famitsu. The outlet also shares a look at the top five games that have sold the most on Switch since release. Animal Crossing: New Horizons was a juggernaut and has a clear lead over everything else at over 7.6 million copies, but the other tiles have also sold over four million.
Here’s the full rundown:
– Animal Crossing: New Horizons: 7,621,929 units sold
– Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: 4,895,873 units sold
– Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: 4,664,614 units sold
