Nintendo Switch has already beaten PS4 & XBOX One Launch sales?!
From numerous articles I've read over the past week all retailers around the globe are sold out of Switch pre-orders. Nintendo has said 2 million units will be available at launch.
I also read today retailers are asking for a further 1 million units to be available at the time of launch.
If I've read everything correctly and Nintendo is able to meet the demands of 3 million at launch, those are absolutely staggering numbers.
That would mean:
Switch launch sales-3 Million
PS4 launch sales-1.2 million
XBOX One launch sales-1 million
The Switch would still have a long way to go to match the competitors lifetime sales, however this is incredible news for Nintendo and the gaming industry.
That's a little under a quarter of the Wii U's lifetime sales.
Nintendo just has to keep on producing units for the current demand, consistently release it's IP'S and continue to court third party developers.
Looks like Nintendo has already hit a home run...
