The Switch broke Nintendo’s sales records (in the Americas, at least)

The title “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild” has also become the best-selling standalone (not bundled, like “Wii Sports”) launch game in Nintendo history.

It’s still very early, but from the looks of things, Nintendo has delivered the hit it needed with the Switch.

In honor of the Switch’s only big game (Zelda) the dudes at the Waterjet Channel chose to slice the Triforce design into the system’s screen while it’s on.

Nintendo’s new console has beaten the Wii’s first weekend sales figures, according to a report.

So there are a lot of headlines popping up within the Android community that talk about how Nintendo’s new Joy-Con controllers for the Switch console will natively pair with an Android device.

Time will tell if the Switch maintains its current success, but isn’t it remarkable that an underpowered console plagued with hardware issues and short on games to play is off to such an incredible start?

With regards to the Switch, Nintendo doesn’t have a dead pixel policy in place. Each game comes on a small GameCard that you can carry anywhere. In the Japanese market, the Switch moved 313,000 units since launch, barely more than the Wii U but less than the 2014 launch of the PlayStation 4.

Not long ago, 8Bitdo released a Retro Receiver for the NES Classic Edition to give owners the option to pair Bluetooth controllers with their wireless game controllers. Are you going to use the controller with you Android, Mac, or Windows device, or stick to using the controllers on the Switch?

Why aren’t they available at launch, though?

It’s a game console, first and foremost, despite its resemblance to tablets like the iPad that are so often used for media consumption. Fans surged major retail stores which resulted to sold out stocks and retailers even claimed that Nintendo is back as reported by Games Industry. Many gamers were anticipating the release of the system, and it seems they have put their money where their mouths are.
