Nintendo Switch sold more units in December than any other video game system, according to the NPD Group, which tracks video game sales in the United States. Holiday shoppers purchased 1.5 million Nintendo Switch systems during the five-week reporting period of December, which is a critical month for the video game industry. Since its launch 10 months ago, Nintendo Switch has sold more than 4.8 million units, making it the fastest-selling home console in U.S. history.
The Nintendo 3DS family of systems also demonstrated continued strength, posting its best sales month since December 2014. Collectively, the different versions of Nintendo 3DS hardware sold more than 750,000 units in the U.S. in December, a 27 percent increase over the same period a year ago. The sales also pushed the Nintendo 3DS family of systems to a new milestone of more than 21 million sold in the U.S.
Combined hardware sales of Nintendo Switch, Nintendo 3DS and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Editionsystem topped 2.6 million units, which accounted for more than half of all hardware sold during the month.
Four Nintendo Switch games finished high on the December sales charts for individual titles: Super Mario Odyssey at No. 3, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe at No. 4, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild at No. 9 and Splatoon 2 at No. 16. Additionally, Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon for Nintendo 3DS finished No. 13 and No. 14, respectively.

Am I the only one that sees ‘NPD’ and he’s thinking about “new york police department”? no? just me? too many Hollywood movies i guess
Your thinking of NYPD
NINTENDOMINATION!
Really? is not better buy one when the price is low? That Nintendo Fanboys :/
Best to buy before it’s low for a better ride, and you end up giving Nintendo more money, so they can make better games.
Look at the Wii U and the entertaining value.. no one bought, so other then a couple of games, they pretty much sucked!
Oh.. They have plenty in the bank. I wouldnt worry about that one
Even so they wouldn’t invest that money into the Switch if no one wss buying it.
I guess the haters can’t be found, seeing they were wrong now they are bound. We don’t have to left a finger the Switch sells pounds
