New Pokémon Snap+Generation VIII Smashing Sales, Switch Outsells PS3 and Xbox 360

Hey fellas- thought I would provide a quick sales update now that the data has finally been updated for the last quarter. New Pokémon Snap, having just rolled out a new update with more monsters and courses (loving the Mightywide River course); has now been confirmed to have sold over 2 million copies in just under four months on sale! This is double what the original sold in its run on Nintendo 64, which definitely proves demand for this long-awaited sequel.

On that note, “Pokémon Sword and Shield” are still selling like gangbusters, having sold over 21.85 million copies worldwide as of this writing, outselling the 21.40 million sold by “Super Mario Odyssey,” definitely no small task. The top seller still remains “Mario Kart 8 Deluxe” at 37.08 million copies; followed by “Animal Crossing: New Horizons” at 33.89 million copies, “Super Smash Bros. Ultimate” at 24.77 million copies and “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild” at 23.20 million copies. The remainder of the list consists of “Super Mario Party” at 15.72 million, “Pokémon Let’s Go: Pikachu and Eevee” at 13.57 million, and “Splatoon 2” at 12.45 million; with new entry “Ring Fit Adventure” rounding out the top 10 at 11.26 million, edging out “New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe.”

The last update I will share is how the Nintendo Switch itself has now sold over 89.04 million units worldwide; surpassing the 87.4 million units sold by the Playstation 3 and the 84 million sold by the Xbox 360! With new variations to come even after the Switch OLED, surpassing the sales of the original Wii is a lofty but plausible goal. That will be all for now, and I will see you again soon.
