Nintendo Switch 2 Breaks Sales Records – Over 3.5 Million Units Sold in Just Four Days

In the four days following its June 5th launch, Nintendo Switch 2 sold more than 3.5 million units worldwide, becoming the fastest-selling Nintendo hardware ever.

Nintendo Switch 2 features a larger, vivid screen capable of full 1080p high-definition display (and 4K when connected to a compatible TV or monitor), a faster processor that allows for enhanced graphics and gameplay performance, and redesigned magnetic Joy-Con 2 controllers with mouse functionality.

The console also debuts the new GameChat feature, where players can voice or video chat and share game screens with friends online, bringing the feeling of playing together in the same room even if their friends and family are miles away.

“Nintendo Switch 2 represents the next evolution of Nintendo Switch, and we’re very happy and grateful to see it already being embraced by so many players across Europe,” said Luciano Pereña, CEO and President of Nintendo of Europe.

“We look forward to seeing players connecting through games like Mario Kart World, sharing the experience with friends and family
whether near or far.”

Nintendo Switch 2 launched alongside Mario Kart World. Featuring a series-first interconnected world where you can drive virtually anywhere (including across cities, plains, a desert and even the ocean), Mario Kart World includes dynamic weather conditions, new game modes, and up to 24 drivers at once – the most in series history.

And next month, a brand-new 3D platforming game starring Donkey Kong will make its debut exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2. Donkey Kong Bananza will let players unleash their inner Kong as they smash and bash their way through a wild, mayhem-packed action adventure, launching July 17th.

In the four days following its June 5th launch, Nintendo Switch 2 sold more than 3.5 million units
worldwide, becoming the fastest-selling Nintendo hardware ever globally.
