Los nuevos juegos Pokémon son los de venta más rápida en Nintendo history

By Ninian Carter

November 24, 2022 - Los nuevos lanzamientos de New Pokémon de Nintendo se han convertido en losjuegos de venta más rápida de la firma, logrando 10 millones en ventas en 72 horas.

Nintendo’s latest game releases look set for blockbuster status after selling 10 million copies for its five-year-old Switch console in only three days.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet were both released worldwide on November 18, selling over 4 million units in the gaming giant’s home market of Japan – a new domestic record.

The games, which retail for $60 each, are identical except for the lineup of characters and collectibles in each version – meaning if fans want to collect them all, they need to purchase both titles.

After the announcement, Nintendo shares rose almost 2% – helping offset a November 8 slump of 7% when the company cut its fiscal-year forecast for Switch console sales by a tenth.

However, the latest Pokémon titles have some way to go if they want to enter the top 10 selling video games of all time.

10 BEST SELLING VIDEO GAMES OF ALL TIME

1. Tetris – 520m
2. Minecraft – 238m
3. Grand Theft Auto V – 170m+
4. Wii Sports – 83m
