Nintendo has announced that the Nintendo Switch 2 handheld console has sold more than 3.5 million units worldwide. This makes it the fastest-selling Nintendo game system ever and even dethroning the market share of gaming PC handhelds which has started making a dent in the market.
In case you didn’t know, the Nintendo Switch 2 has just been launched last June 5 and it offers a more powerful hardware inside that is capable of 1080p on handheld and even on 4K on dock. The new console also features a larger display, new GameChat feature, Joy-Cons 2 feature, and many more.
The Nintendo Switch 2 shares a lot of features to the original Nintendo Switch and there’s a really good backwards compatibility in here which is why there’s already a large library of games for the Nintendo Switch 2.
And according to Nintendo, they’ve sold 3.5 million units in just four days. Despite the more expensive starting price for some games including Mario Kart World, this isn’t surprising due to the success and popularity of the original Nintendo Switch.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is now available with an SRP of $629.99 and you can also get it in bundle with a digital download of the Mario Kart World for $699.99.
You can also get it in the Philippines officially via Digital Walker.
