Earlier this week, Famitsu reported that the Switch Lite sold 177,936 units in its first week. That was a great debut for Nintendo, as the 3DS XL was the only other system revision with a better start.

Here’s a full comparison of all system revision launch sales:

Earlier today, we heard that Mario Kart Tour had been downloaded over 20 million times. That number has already climbed to 20 million, based on a Sensor Tower report. Mario Kart Tour installs are almost triple those of Super Mario Run, which was Nintendo’s previous record holder for mobile launch downloads.

Additionally, player spending has already topped $1 million globally. That’s roughly 25 percent of Nintendo’s best performing title on mobile during its launch day, Fire Emblem Heroes, which earned about $4.3 million.

According to a GamesIndustry report, the Switch Lite sold roughly 13,500 units during its first week in the UK.

While that may seem like a low number, debut sales were not expected to be high. The device should pick up steam closer to Christmas, as was the case for the 2DS. That portable system sold 200,000 units in about two months, though sales primarily increased after the October half-term holiday.

As for Switch in general, it’s sitting at a total of around 1.9 million units sold since launch. It’s slightly better than the 3DS, which reached 1.9 million sales by the end of November 2013.

Update: As it turns out, this was only an estimate from Media Create. Updated data can be found in our latest post here.


Original: Initial Japanese sales data for the Switch Lite has been revealed. In its first three days, the device managed to sell 114,000 units.

As for the original Switch, it moved another 64,000 units in Japan last week. That’s in comparison to 52,000 units the week prior. That means the Switch Lite sold over 100,000 consoles and slightly increased sales of the standard Switch.
