[Deleted member 8112]

And that's indeed sell-through, not shipped!

As of December 10th, worldwide life-to-date sell-through for Nintendo Switch, which launched on March 3, 2017, has surpassed 10 million units *.

Nintendo Switch is a home console equipped with a variety of unique features. Users can instantly take it on the go and share the Joy-Con controllers with those around them, enabling them to play whenever, wherever and with whomever they want. Nintendo Switch offers a wider range of playstyle options and places where games can be played, and has been well-received by consumers all around the world.

[Buttzerker]

I'm a winner!

 

[Deleted member 8112]

That image is so sweet I might die.

 

[Bunga]

Damn that's amazing. Deserved.

 

[MONSTER]

SLAY!!!!

 

[Datajoy]

I did my part.

 

[Arion]

That seems really good. How does this compare with other systems?

 

[unicornKnight]

I always believed!

 

[Rikucrafter]

Well deserved. They've made a wonderful device.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

What a great image.

 

[Buttzerker]

Also it's crazy how Splatoon is included in the trifecta here with the likes of Mario and Zelda. Shows you just how big of a hit Nintendo managed with that one.

 

[CaviarMeths]

Nintendo fans just starved for hardware.

Need to wait another 2 years.

To clarify too, that's sell-through

Well deserved!

 

[Skittzo]

Wow. That image is incredible!

And this is before December, I could see that number going up by 3-4M after this month.

What's the asterisk referring to in that PR?

 

[Al3x1s]

I rly rly want one :(

 

[Bonejack]

Yeah but Nintendo, i could do without the blue shells, you know?

Nice to see that, after the situation with Wii U, they now have a much more compelling product. Just don't drop the efforts now!

 

[Raijinto]

So that would be March 3rd- December 3rd 2017?

Very impressive.

 

[Aktlys]

20 million first year hype

 

[MrPhiliasfrog]

That's incredible!

Thanks, I'll add it to the OP.

 

[KZXcellent]

Well deserved.

They knocked it out of the park and delivered a killer lineup of games in it's first year. Such a good time.

 

[FiXalaS]

DESERVED

Good job Nintendo, keep it up!

 

[That Naive Cube!!]

Awesome console. Have 8 eight games for the damn thing already, 6 of which are exclusive. Nintendo got a pass from me this year, but next year they need to bring it with their online offerings

 

[sfortunato]

It's going to crash Wii U LTD before in its first year and catching up fast with GC.

 

[Coolwhip]

Nintendo is back! Let's hope 2018 will be killer!

 

[Deleted member 11370]

Hmmmm. I don't know. Still sounds like a gimmick. Does it have any killer app yet?

Spoiler

;)

 

[ReplacementPelican]

Good, glad to see it doing well. Couple of phenomenal games on there but when Pokémon finally releases, whew, gonna do even better.

 

[HououinKyouma]

Awesome. Can't wait to get my hands on one.

 

[Deleted member 9971]

Holy Shit that's amazing 10m before 2018 was what i hoped for :) congratz Nintendo Switch!

It's funny but i believe it will outsell Wii U within 1 year so before march 3 2018 (in it's launch year)

Great to see Ninty do well again i admit after Wii U i was a bit worried.

They have likely shipped around 12M at this point, with another 4.7m needed to be shipped by March 31st, should be just about enough time to accomplish that, I expect a huge December then.

 

[Meelow]

And people laughed at me when I said Switch could outsell Wii U total hardware units sold in a year.

Congrats Nintendo!

 

[DaiJyoubs]

Have played my Switch basically everyday since launch. Happy to see it doing great! Congrats to Nintendo! Well deserved!

 

[Sangetsu-II]

First PS4 and PSVR reached milestones this year and now Switch reach theirs. Gaming is alive and well.

Spoiler

If only we had Microsoft say something

 

[Coolwhip]

PS4 exactly 9 months too!

[Jawbreaker]

Really strong start for the Switch! They killed it with their software this year.

 

[ethanradd]

My third ever Nintendo system after the NES and original Game Boy, Zelda pulled me in.

 

[MWorldII]

Almost as fast as PS4. Impressive. Good for Nin!

We just announced that the PlayStation 4 has sold through more than 10 million units worldwide –- and more than 30 million PS4 games have been sold –- since its launch less than nine months ago.

The king is back in all his glory!

To think a lot of people though the Switch was dead on arrival.... It's been the year of the crow, it seems.

 

[Phoenix RISING]

Is this thing really going to lap the Wii U LTD in one year???

 

[wapplew]

Welcome to the beast club.

 

[nin]

Congratulations! They really really deserve it for the amount of work they put into their games

Actually it's possible it will outsell the Wii U by the end of this month if it's already at 10 million. I could see another ~million in the US and Japan each, just need 1.5M for the rest of the world.

Hahaha thanks

 

[memoryman3]

That was very quick. It's probably going to pass Wii U before the fiscal year is over!

Hope this means that we get some GOOD Mario Sports games for once.

 

[TheRealMjeed]

Impressive. I bet many 3rd party developers are paying attention now

 

[Magicpork]

That's very impressive considering it hasn't had a full holiday season yet.. can't wait to see what Nintendo can come up with in 2018.. they definitely need to improve their online offering

 

[CrazyDude]

It was 7.63 million as of October 30th.

Interesting. I wonder what their number shipped is so far
