Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo Switch is the Nintendo Biggest Launch in Australia and New Zealand Ever!

Seriously!!! You can still pick it up anywhere and retailers are bundling it up with a game at reduced prices just to move stock (Kogan had it bundled with Zelda for $499 which is a saving of $50 if you bought them seperately). I seriously question it being the best selling nintendo console in Australia....

It's not that hard to believe. The Wii was supply constrained at launch. Since they didn't give numbers or percentages, most likely it barely outsold the Wii, so 33K-35K.  Kinda pales in comparison to XBO's 66K at launch.  And the PS4 would have beaten that 66K if it wasn't for it being supply constrained.  And if it's true what you say, Nintendo definitely met more than demand in AU.  The next few months are going to be the true test for the Switch.
