Specifically, it’s at 52.48 million units sold. Over 47 million of which is from the original Switch, and over 5 million is from the Nintendo Switch Lite. All in all, it’s an astounding number that proves how much staying power the Switch has, as well as the incredible lineup that came out over the year that was 2019.

Speaking of which, in terms of 1st party game sales, here are a few highlights.
