The Switch passed the SNES! Next stop, the NES. After that the Switch is untouchable.

Too bad the Switch missed the 50M mark, though not by much. And kudos to overtake the SNES in less than 3 years, that's some serious feat!

If it makes you feel better these numbers are to Dec 28, so it probably did cross 50 million by Jan 1.

Thanks for the numbers. That was fast!

Switch passed the SNES, but I was expecting it to hit 50 million by this update. Nevertheless, it's doing great.

Based on the new globals Switch needs 12.1m to meet the next milestone while the possible shipments I'm going to have a guess at it being at 52m shipped.
