gematsu.com/2017/04/switch-sells-906000-units-march-us-legend-zelda-breath-wild-tops-1-3-million >Switch sold more than 906,000 units in March in the United States, according to NPD Group sales data, Nintendo announced. That makes Switch the fastest-selling video game system in Nintendo history, and one of the fastest-selling video game systems of all time. Nintendo notes that this sales surge was accomplished in a non-traditional month for a console launch.
What up, bitches? You were so certain the Switch was going to fail. Who's laughing now?
Evan Reed
Its a failure until it gets a real game
MH when. Shitty Capcom console without main game.
Elijah Bennett
Doesn't selling nearly a million despite having only one non-exclusive game actually make it the opposite of a failure? I mean, no console has ever had a great launch library. Just by having the only truly solid title at launch that isn't a tech demo that will be entirely forgotten as the console ages, the Switch launch library beats most consoles.
Kevin Barnes
Where is my fucking switch amazon? ... WHERE IS MY FUCKING SWITCH!
Parker Sanchez
i switched to ps4
Christopher James
You know why they call it a Switch? Because when you play it you'll Switch back to another console.

Never underestimate the stupidity of millennials. >don't buy Wii U which offered perfect backward compatibility including controller BC >buy the Scratch, an overpriced underpowered trainwreck >badly designed hardware >which doesn't even have games >Wii U however had tons of exclusives >and had free online multiplayer
Colton Reyes
>You were so certain the Switch was going to fail. Who's laughing now? The retards who bought a Switch and forgot about the honeymoon period of the WiiU
Jayden Rogers
HOW DOES IT SELL WHEN THERE ARE NONE IN STOCK
Levi Watson
So you are over 37?
Cooper Cruz
Fuck Capcom. FUCK Capcom.
Joseph Peterson
You can be a millennial and still call millennials stupid.
Owen Bailey
So wait, BotW sold more copies than Switch sold consoles? Even with the Wii U ver of BotW, wouldn't this mean that basically everyone who bought a Switch also bought Botw?
Samuel Fisher
>tfw saving up Amazon GC's because Poorfag
>all the Switches on Ama-Zion are either scalpers or scammers
Camden Hall
These people are complete morons. Even when the Wii was kicking ass in sales they refused to accept it as a "real" victory for Nintendo. Its library got bigger and bigger and they refused to admit it had tons of great games, all because they were mad a Nintendo console was doing well.
They got cocky after the Wii U's middling sales so they weren't expecting another Wii-level performance from the Switch. Fact is, Nintendo is powerful and always will be.
Ryan Nguyen
Humans are stupid too.
Brayden Taylor
Switch is a handheld. How are its sales compared to DS and 3DS?
Nathaniel Bell
>buy the Scratch Why do people keep on making autistic names for the switch?
Adrian Myers
Almost a million consoles sold in a non-holiday release with only a single game worth buying, that is honestly kind of amazing.
Jace Miller
>the fastest-selling video game system in Nintendo history, and one of the fastest-selling video game systems of all time.
Landon Cook
It's low-hanging fruit, even the Nintendo Bitch is a tier higher in terms of insults
Christian Rodriguez
Sup Forums BTFO B T F O
Jaxson Hall
I saw a good explanation for why this happened. >Cool, a new Nintendo system. >They have not made one since the Wii.
Wii U was a stupid name and marketed poorly on top of that. Nintendo made sure to get it right this time.
Jeremiah Bell
Maybe see in a year and stop trying to bait out your shitflinging thread.
Kayden Morales
Both the DS and 3DS sold ~400k launch month
John Gutierrez
>Just by having the only truly solid title at launch that isn't a tech demo that will be entirely forgotten as the console ages, the Switch launch library beats most consoles. Wii had Twilight Princess, so.
Huh. The Wii also sold great! Makes you think.
Levi Mitchell
Oh shit wait, that is worldwide. the 906k figure for the Switch is US only.
Adrian Green
welp, this is MADNESS. They are literally replicating the Wii and I have no idea how. The normies must be buying it in droves. Why I do not know.
Jeremiah Anderson
>shitposter thinks he can embarrass the Switch by comparing its sales to handheld sales >gets absolutely obliterated by heroic poster with the numbers
Nintendo always wins, baby. Even against Nintendo.
Camden Diaz
>playing on my ps4 and give zero fucks about switch meme feels good Still hype about E3 , hope they announce something good. Both Zelda and 3D Mario are going to their roots , hope happens the same with metroid.
Joseph Jackson
I want one and can't find one
shit sucks manye
Jordan Lee
These comments made me remember when the wiiu launched too
Isaac Perez
>hope happens the same with metroid.
Bentley Parker
Lol give it up fag The Switch is now a success at the very worst and has the chance to become a Wii tier phenomenon
Leo Butler
What happened here?
Levi Barnes
Holiday season I would assume.
Dylan Foster
I wasn't talking to you retard.
Matthew Stewart
>tfw you bought a ps4
Angel Diaz
Who were you talking to then, meanie?
Grayson Powell
I ordered my Switch two weeks ago, WHERE IS IT?!? >HURR SWITCH NOT SELLING ;^)
Fuck you and the normies keeping me from my Zelda, I mean seriously, I don't care, I just want to play my shitty open world Zelda but I can't because that piece of shit, and I'm serious here, the dock scratch situation alone makes it shady, is sold out everywhere.
And then I have to see these fucking threads. Yes I'm mad
Jacob Reyes
>tfw you bought both
Joseph Rodriguez
Probably a ton of scalpers are keeping you from getting it
Lincoln Carter
>tfw you have a ps4, switch and pc and also collect
2017 is probably the year for games in a long time, since like 2004 or 1998 even
Nathan Martin
Next eight or so years are gonna be good. "B-but the games!" Yeah, they're right there, dipshit.
Ryder Johnson
You realize you can just play BotW on PC with the emulator.
Nathaniel Bennett
Like what?
Zachary Baker
I love my Wii U, but at this point in its lifecycle it had fucking nothing. Just NintendoLand and NSMBU pretty much. We're still a couple months away from MH3U and Lego City, launch aligned. The Wii U didn't really start picking up until Pikmin 3, The Wonderful 101, and Rayman Legends later in 2013. And the Switch is $50 cheaper than the Wii U was.
Benjamin White
>tfw you are a poorfag with a broken computer and a ps2 It could be worse I guess
Ian Scott
You'll never run out of PS2 games to play in your entire life.
