Sales of the switch console reached 107 million units
Nintendo has just released its recent fiscal year report, which shows us that the Nintendo switch console has been generally successful as of March 31, 2022. To sell 107.65 million units. Total Sales of games for this popular device have reached 822.18 million copies to date.
Nintendo has stated that 4.11 million switch devices have been sold in the last quarter. Also in the most recent quarter ending March 31, 2022, the number of games sold for this console was 55.7 million.
It is possible that switch Sales could surpass PlayStation 2 Sales and become the best-selling home console in history. The PlayStation 2 console is estimated to have sold more than 158 million copies. Of course, this is just a possibility, and Nintendo does not have an easy task to reach this statistic, and achieving this statistic will depend on several factors.
Nintendo expects switch Sales to decline in the current fiscal year. They estimate that Sales of this hybrid console in the new fiscal year, which began on April 1, will drop by 9% from 23 million units in the previous fiscal year to 21 million units. This will be the third year in a row that switch Sales are likely to decline compared to the previous year, which is not surprising given the ongoing problems in supplying consoles and the shortage of parts. Also, reaching the end of the console life cycle is another factor in this decrease in Sales compared to previous years, which is not surprising. According to Reuters, Nintendo president Shantaro Furukawa said the shortage of parts continues to affect results, and according to Reuters, the timing of the process is still unknown.
Nintendo said that the launch of the Old
switch model in November 2021 helped Nintendo reach its goal
of selling 23 million units during the previous
fiscal year (the final number for the previous fiscal year was 23).
Was 06 million). However, as to why overall switch
Sales declined from last year, Nintendo said launching
Animal Crossing: New Horizons in March 2020 was the "main driver"
of console Sales that year, which could not be
reached in 2021. . In addition, the switch
console market was affected by the semiconductor shortage in
the quarter ended March 31.
