Nintendo Switch sales surpass 89 million, has outsold both the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3
Nintendo continues to dominate in terms of sales, as the Nintendo Switch has hit yet another sales milestone. The latest financial report shows that the Switch family of systems has officially shifted 89.04 million units since the console's launch in March 2017. Last time we checked in on the Q4 2020 fiscal report, the Switch had sold 79.87 million units, which means in a matter of a few months, the Switch was able to surpass the sales figures for the PlayStation Portable, the Game Boy Advance, the Xbox 360, and the PlayStation 3. Despite such success, Switch hardware and software sales are noticeably down from 2020, with the former having decreased 21.7%, and the latter going down by 10.2%.
With the launch of the Nintendo Switch OLED on the horizon, as well as major first-party and exclusive releases set to arrive before the year, Nintendo is keeping its outlook positive. The next milestone for the Switch would be overtaking the Nintendo Wii, which sits at a respectable 101.63 million units sold.
