Las ventas de Nintendo Switch superan a las de su predecesor 3DS
February 5, 2021 - Nintendo ha vendido cerca de 80 millones de unidades de su sistema de videojuegos híbrido casero-portátil Switch, eclipsando a su predecesor, el 3DS
Nintendo's hugely successful games console, the Nintendo Switch, has sold 79.9 million units, according to the Japanese firm's latest financial statements.
The news is all the more startling given the Switch has been on sale for less than four years, whereas the 3DS went on sale 10 years ago, only being discontinued in September 2020.
Nintendo posted record profits of $3.6 billion for the period April to December 2020, buoyed by 30 million sales of its gentle social game, Animal Crossing, which is proving hugely popular during Covid-19 lockdowns around the world.
