New sales data is in from the UK for the month of December.

When it came to physical sales, Nintendo was the #3 company. Super Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Zelda: Breath of the Wild all charted. Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon also would have placed at #11 had sales of the two games been combined.

This week’s issue of Famitsu reveals the top 100 best-selling games of 2017. A ton of games on Nintendo platforms made the list. In fact, 3DS and Nintendo Switch titles make up the full top ten.

Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon was the top-seller on 3DS and overall with just over two million copies sold. Splatoon 2 follows second with over 1.75 million units sold.

Switch has actually sold more units in its first ten months in Portugal than Wii U managed to in five years. To date, the system has moved 20,000 units. That may not seem like a whole lot, but Switch still managed to already reach a major milestone in Portugal, surpassing Nintendo’s previous console in less than a year.

Following similar stories from multiple other countries, the Switch has become the fastest selling console of all time in Spain. In its first ten months on the market, the Switch has sold more units than any other system to date. The previous record holder was the Wii.

Last March, the Switch set another record in Spain when it became the country’s most successful console launch of all time, selling 44,673 units during its launch weekend. It seems like the Switch was able to keep up that momentum throughout the rest of 2017.

Nintendo has shattered all sorts of sales records with Switch since the system launched in 2017. Despite being around for less than a year, it has done exceptionally well thus far.

The latest example of this can be seen from a nugget of new information provided by the NPD. Analyst Mat Piscatella says that “on a time-aligned basis through the first 10 months on the market, Nintendo Switch has sold more consoles than any other platform in history.”

Nintendo announced earlier this month that Switch is the fastest-selling home video game system of all time in the US. Nearly five million units have been sold in the country.
