Nintendo: sales in numbers, switch and games, dirty data

Product/market fit, also called product-market fit, is the level to which an item satisfies a strong market need. Product/market fit has actually been identified as a very first step to developing a successful venture in which the business fulfills early adopters, collects responses and evaluates interest in its item(s).

Since 2017, Nintendo knows a new golden age through its famous Switch . After a monumental flop on the part of the Wii U, the company questioned before developing an effective hybrid console. But what are the numbers **?

Nintendo - sales figures for the consoles, the Queen Switch

As at June 30, 2021, there is a total of 89.04 million of Nintendo Switch in circulation. It is a fairly exceptional score, especially compared to the Wii U with 13.5 , or even 3D and its 76 million. The console approaches the sales of the mythical Wii , strong of its 101m . A record to reach for the company and is no longer so far if it continues on its momentum. The only unattainable figure seems to be the Nintendo DS , from the top of its 154m of units sold **.

The attachment rate is also very strong. If the GameBoy sold 118m, its Software sales were only 500m where with 89m, the switch approaches 632m , an average of 7 games per owner .

GAMES ON SWITCH, AN AMPRESSOME SOFTWARE STATUS

Inon only the concept interests, but the abundance of games also seems to appeal. If it is a shame to see a good packet of second chances from the Wii U library, we can only understand that the hardware was the cause of the failure of the last generation.

Here we find the big licenses of Nintendo here. After a good launch in 2021, Animal Crossing is in second position. Some hoped to see her dethrone Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, but the colossal weekly years of this 8 year old giant (4 in Switch version) make it almost invulnerable. BREATH OF THE WILD arrives just behind Super Smash Bros Ultimate . The 2 entries are also the best sellers of their respective series, just like Pokemon Sword and Shield waiting for 4G remakes to blow a little.

Finally, the little ones arrive to make their way. SPLATOON 2 imposes respect and probably pushed towards the arrival of a third opus, while Ring Fit Adventure expels New Super Mario Bros U outside the ranking. Despite stock problems, the spiritual successor of Wii Fit has a very strong sales base.
