 Well, I Did not see this coming, but maybe I should have because the Nintendo switch Killed it last year for all the negativity for all of the bad things that have been happening Even as recently as I guess today yesterday things just keep getting worse. I will say this Nintendo is in the midst of one of the greatest periods of time in the company history when it just comes to pure Sales we have Final sales data or a little at least a little interesting sales fact about the Nintendo switch in the UK and then the final sales of for the final week of everything that matters in Japan and My lord are we looking at some? Record-breaking sales all right before we get into that we are giving away a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X or Nintendo switch we're giving it away this month We might give away two of them if we can hit 70,000 subscribers this month In fact, we will give away two if we hit 70,000 But otherwise we will announce the winner of the current giveaway at the end of the month to enter go down into the description It'll explain everything and I wish everyone luck all right so on Twitter There is an analyst a reporter out in the UK called Christopher drink He put up a tweet that says in the UK last year if you add Every PlayStation 5 sold to every PlayStation 4 sold to every Xbox series sold to every Xbox one sold You would get pretty much how much Nintendo switch Systems sold so what he's saying is Nintendo switch sold as much as the Cumulative sales of all other home consoles last year in the UK Nintendo has traditionally not been a big performer in the UK. So yeah Nintendo killed it, but they didn't just kill it in the UK now US wise We're not gonna have MPD data for December for a little bit still, but we do have the final Week or so final few days of Japanese sales charts This comes directly from Femitsu now Femitsu doesn't always give actual sales data, but they do during the holidays and My lord I Wow, let's get into the software Because this is equally impressive to the hardware. So here are the top 10 software Momotaro, then Tetsu Showa Hesse right way at Mo Taiban, I'm pretty sure I butchered that it's by Konami the Nintendo switch Version is at number one so 459,243 units and I'm across the New Horizons at number two selling 202,132 units Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is at number three selling 152,052 units The Ring Fit Adventures at number four with 129,275 units Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is at 108,052 we have Pikmin 3 Deluxe at number six with 91,336 at number seven we have Super Mario Party at 86,723 at number eight We have Minecraft at 85,989 at number nine We have clubhouse games 51 worldwide classics at 85,027 and we have new Super Mario 3d all-stars all that jazz at 70,144 now again This is for last week's period through the end of the year so it's kind of like basically the final week in like final eight or nine days of the year but here's the thing here's where sales get even crazier The Nintendo switch so 467,051 units over that eight to nine day period The Switch Lite that's right that's that combined sales Switch Lite sold 123,243 units That means the combined sales a switch and switch light moved 500 and 90,000 units third place PlayStation 4 with 30,482 fourth place PlayStation 5 with 18,129 Now they have the digital edition listed separately at number five selling 5,691 Then at number six we have the new 2DS LL which includes the 2DS It's the last system being made by Nintendo So 1,372 units at number seven you the Xbox series X selling 275 at number eight you have the PlayStation 4 Pro at 112 and number nine is the Xbox series as 64 So yeah, obviously the Xbox isn't doing very well not a surprise Xbox has never done well in Japan PlayStation 5 selling less than the PlayStation 4 That's not good But the Nintendo switch Almost 600,000. Can you believe Nintendo switches at almost? 600,000 units sold in a week. How? Why? What what is going on? I don't even What is this? What is happening? I'm about to cry Nintendo switch what is going on now now that I'm actually look at this further. I do want to update you a little bit It's the it's December 21st through January 3rd So it is a little bit more than a week that is actually almost two weeks. So still That's 300,000 a week That's 9,000 a week from PlayStation 5. Oh my god Nintendo switch is killing it. They own Japan. It's official. They own Japan It's over Everyone else just pack them and go home. They're literally at almost 18 million units sold in Japan alone They are going to pass 3ds. They are going to pass PlayStation 4. They are going to pass. We it's not well They have already passed PlayStation 4. They're going to pass we Switch might become the best-selling platform of all time in Japan and it might Oddly enough become one of the best-selling if not the best-selling in the UK. Are we looking at are we under selling switch? I Don't know. This momentum is going to continue in 2021. There's a bunch of big games coming The momentum is not going to go anywhere not for at least a year. Maybe two who knows but the Nintendo switch if it maintains its Amazing rise its Meteoric sales if it continues for another year another two years another three years Are we looking at potentially the best-selling system of all time? Let's think about this for a moment. The best-selling system of all time is the PlayStation 2 Which is like a fraction just a small hair ahead of the DS but think about this The switch is over 80 million Get another year in the books. Let's say now it's over a hundred million get another year in the books Let's say it's at 20 125 million and as a third year that it maintains these kind of sales That would put it at the top Nintendo switch is killing it. Nintendo switch is The most high-demand electronic device I've seen in such a long time. I don't even know How Nintendo through a pandemic Was not only able to make this amount of switches But was able to convince people to buy this amount of switches. Yes, all of video games did pretty well during the pandemic so far But Nintendo is the clear-cut winner I mean even in the United States Nintendo switch games are basically dominating the top ten for the year in the United States on Amazon I think it's like nine or eight of the top ten games are all switch games Obviously animal crossing at the top This is insane. I don't even know what else to say other than good for you Nintendo good for you Good for you. All right, folks. I am Nathan Ruffalo chance from Nintendo Prime That might be the last video today.
