It’s official: Nintendo has confirmed the Switch 2 handheld game console has sold more than 3.5 million units worldwide within the first four days of release. That makes it the fastest-selling Nintendo device ever, flying past other releases like the original Switch, which by comparison sold 2.74 million units in its first month.
The Nintendo Switch 2 launched at $450 for the standard America version of the console, which has yet to be affected by the latest tariffs.
It features a larger screen, revamped Joy-Con controllers, more advanced processors and backwards compatibility with Switch 1 games. It currently features updated versions of classics like Breath of the Wild, as well as the exclusive Mario Kart World.
Despite the massive early-day sales, the Switch 2 still has a long ways to go to catch up to the original Switch, which has currently sold over 150 million units since its 2017 release date.
