The Switch has actually been a special return for Nintendo after the entire Wii U mess, and the business states the celebration is simply beginning.
Sales for the console depend on 17.79 million since March 31, according to the business’s most current revenues report. Nintendo is anticipating that it’ll offer an extra 20 million systems this — and 100 million video games.
For a point of referral, Nintendo’s previous house console, the Wii U, has an overall life time sales count of 13.5 million, with 102 million software application systems offered. The business’s most effective hardware venture was the Wii, which offered simply over 100 million systems.

Key to that will be the recently unveiled Smash Bros. game. The earnings report also noted that a traditional Pokemon RPG, which was announced at last year’s E3, will be released in “2018 or later.” The fact that 2018 is listed as a possibility is significant, as there are two other games (Bayonetta 3, Metroid Prime 4) with a release window of “TBA.”Â
Nintendo also announced that president Tatsumi Kimishima will retire on June 28. Kimishima became president after the 2015 passing of Satoru Iwata. He’ll be replaced by 42-year-old(!) Shuntaro Furukawa.
