GBA? What does it got to do with it? 

Because it's a video game console, and literally nothing about your comment chain indicated any further specification?

Dont be bitter, every piece of positive PR gets a thread regardless of the company.

But it would be nice if Nintendo just announced that WW Switch is their best selling console after 10 months that way we dont need a new thread for each country.

Pictured: Zorg starts conversation. Words used: WW Switch is their best selling console after 10 months.

No it doesn't. Sony fans don't really create threads with cherry picked information.

It won't announce that because it's not true.

Pictured: You saying that is not true.

You're forgetting something. Nearly 20 million PS2 shipments in it's first year and it's launch was all over the place. Nintendo hasn't claimed best seller ww in 10 months because it's not.

Pictured: Zorg's explanation, your response. Words used: "Best seller WW in 10 months".

Not found: Home console.

Funnily enough, this makes you even more wrong than I first thought. Your initial response to zorg, saying that Nintendo can't announce something that isn't true, is incorrect if you were just talking about home consoles, because zorg specifically said "THEIR" fastest-selling console, i.e. Nintendo's fastest-selling console, for which Switch is easily in first place as of ten months.

Either your initial post included handhelds and your subsequent post about PS2 being in first place is wrong, or your initial post excluded handhelds and was thus wrong on its own. Of course, the second post is still wrong regardless, because companies don't get to magically allign their regional launches to claim the title of "fastest-selling worldwide".

You're just strawmanning now.  I was clearly talking about home consoles. You only brought it up to say Nintendo sold more. I brought up the ps2 to counter the figures he brought up to show that the ns sold more in that time frame. Anything  can sell more than something else when you cherry pick.

In all likelihood, the ns sold less than the ps4 ww in the first 10 months considering that Nintendo hasn't said anything about beating the ps4 in that way. Anyway, I'm done talking about ww sales in a npd thread. I didn't mean for it to go on for this long and I don't want to distract from the core topic.
