Nintendo has sold more than 3.5 million Nintendo Switch 2 game consoles worldwide in the first four days since the new system launched June 5.
According to the Japanese gaming giant, this makes the Switch 2, which retails for $449.99, the fastest-selling game system in the company’s history.
Per Nintendo’s specs for the new console, which is the successor to the 2017-released Nintendo Switch, the Switch 2 system includes 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 Switch 2 also includes a new GameChat2 feature, which allows users to voice or video chat and share game screens with friends online.
“Fans around the world are showing their enthusiasm for Nintendo Switch 2 as an upgraded way to play at home and on the go,” Nintendo of America president and chief operating officer Doug Bowser said in a statement accompanying the news Tuesday. “We are thankful for their response and happy to see the fun they are already having with Nintendo Switch 2 as they explore new features and games that bring friends and family together in new ways.”
