Nintendo Switch 2 Sales Exceed Expectations
Nintendo Co Ltd has reported sales of over 3.5 million units of its new Switch 2 console in the first four days of its release. This marks a record-breaking start for the company’s first new console in eight years.
The sales figures surpass those of the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 in their early stages. The strong demand for the console has led to stock depletion, with some online retailers expecting wait times of up to two months.
Nintendo’s initial sales target of 15 million units by March next year appears to be conservative. Analysts suggest that the company may be able to sell more units if it can increase supply.
