But I think Nintendo and the companies regard the USA together with Canada and Mexico as a market, "the Americas". And the headlin of thread says 2.6 million but ppl inside the thread are quoting 2 million. What do you mean by 8 months versus 48 months? Who in recent history sold only 2.6 million consoles in the USA in 48 months? |
Okay, have you read anything at all in this thread? I'm honestly confused at how you missed pretty much all of the relevant information.
From the OP:
"The total number of Nintendo Switch systems sold in the United States through the end of October now stands at more than 2.6 million."
Nintendo announced that Switch sales in the United States alone were over 2.6 million by the end of October. In this thread, we were also discussing their previous announcment that Switch had passed 2 million in the United States by the end of September.
If you want to hear about the Americas as a whole, Nintendo shipped 3.11 million Switch units by the end of September.
Finally, 8 months versus 48 months is about your comment that Switch sales are unimpressive because they're 10% (which isn't true, 2.6 / 20 is not 10%) of PS4 sales, when Switch has been out for 8 months with zero holiday seasons, and PS4 has been out for 48 months and 4 holiday seasons.
