Nintendo Switch sells 46,600,000 consoles beating PS2’s lifetime sales in the US The Nintendo Switch has hit a huge sales milestone in the US, as EA Sports College Football 25 becomes the best-selling sports game ever.
At the time of writing, the overall Switch sales total is 146.04 million, behind both the Nintendo DS at 154.02 million and the PlayStation 2 with its recently touted ‘over 160 million’ milestone – despite Sony previous stating its total was 155 million.
Sony’s suddenly very vague sales figures for the PlayStation 2 have made it difficult to ascertain whether the Nintendo Switch will surpass it in worldwide sales, but in one key country at least, it already has.
Elsewhere in the figures, EA Sports College Football 25 has become the best-selling sports game in US history, based on dollar sales.
Switch sales this Christmas will be crucial in deciding whether the console will have a chance of exceeding the PlayStation 2, but it does seem somewhat ambitious at this stage.
