Nintendo PR: Oct 2020 US - NSW 736K

Ryng can make the NPD thread tomorrow, but Nintendo released PR for October 2020, 735,926 units sold lol.

REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--With growth of 136% when compared to the same month in 2019, the Nintendo Switch family of systems saw its strongest October sales yet, with more than 735,000 units sold between Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite in the U.S. According to numbers provided by NPD, the October 2020 sales of Nintendo Switch are the second-highest October sales of any video game console in history, only outdone by the 807,000 units sold of the Wii system in October 2008.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

NPD/US Years >6M (Since 2002)

NSW 3rd behind 08 Wii and 09 DS.  It can probably still catch 08 DS and 08 Wii's final total.  09 DS will be difficult (almost double current total in just two months).

Yeah there’s no way Xbox or PS5 will beat switch next month.

So it's now ahead of even the DS's peak year for YTD sales up to November, right?

They're cleaning up with a holiday lineup that consists of three Mario ports, a Pikmin port, Pokemon DLC, and a Dynasty Warriors spinoff.
