The Nintendo Switch 2 was released for four days and sold more than 3.5 million units, which is twice the sales speed of the Switch 1.Based on this amazing start, Mat Piscatella, executive director of Circana, announced that the Switch 2's first week sales in the United States set a new record, with 1.1 million units sold in the US market alone, which has exceeded the performance of the Switch 2 in the Japanese domestic market, which was 940,000 units, and also defeated the record held by PS4 in the United States.

Piscatella also revealed that nearly 80% (79%) of the players in the United States who bought Switch 2 in the first week also bought Mario Kart: World, either a bundled console set or a separate purchase.Cyberpunk 2077 and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom are the second best-selling games after the carriage.

Everyone is looking forward to the start of the Switch 2 as a highlight of the year, but no one expected it to achieve such a good result so quickly.It is worth waiting for the best sales performance in the rest of the year and whether the Switch 2 can set more records by the end of 2025.
