Here’s an impressive little Switch tidbit for you. It turns out that Nintendo’s console sold as much as the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox One combined in the UK last year. Unfortunately, we don’t have specific sales figures.
One big reason for Switch’s success in 2020 was Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It was the second best-selling boxed game of the year in the UK. Looking at individual platforms, Animal Crossing was the top seller overall, outperforming the PS4 version of FIFA 21.

Boxed sales of Switch games dipped only 25 percent week-on-week. That’s in contrast to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, which fell 48 percent and 53 percent respectively.
