According to new data from Nintendo, Switch systems and games sold more in the UK and across Europe during the week of November 23 than any other week in the console’s lifespan. That’s based on reported sell-through according to internal Nintendo sales data. Software sales for both physical and digital sales are included.

On the hardware front, the previous best for Switch was in November 2019. The limited bundle including a Switch console, a download code for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and a three-month individual membership to Nintendo Switch Online provided a boost in sales.

The latest Japanese hardware sales from Famitsu are as follows:

Thanks to Black Friday and the upcoming holiday season, Switch just had its biggest sales week ever in the UK. We’re hearing that the system’s bundle, which contains Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and a three month subscription to Nintendo Switch Online, was a big hit. However, we do not have concrete data at this time – Nintendo may have some official information to share in the days ahead.

Still, Switch outsold its competition over the past week with its strong sales. According to GamesIndustry’s Christopher Dring, “Xbox Series S was in (a very distant) second place”. We also know that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe topped the UK sales chart showing that there’s still very much demand and interest in that game.
