Nintendo Switch Is Nintendo’s Fastest Selling Console

Those figures mark the lowest for a Nintendo home console, and were significantly down on the Wii that sold 101.63million units.

As you might expect, the main reason people are picking up the Nintendo Switch right now is the launch of the new Zelda game, which has been in the works for years now.
