Nintendo has revealed that the Nintendo Switch just had its greatest ever week in terms of sales in Europe during the console’s life span.
According to Nintendo, as spotted by VGC, more Nintendo Switch consoles and games (including both physical copies and digital copies) were purchased during the week of November 22 than any other time since March 2017 when the console launched.
This was partly fueled due to a new hardware bundle which included the incredibly popular Mario Kart 8 and a three-month Nintendo Switch Online subscription for a total cost of £259.99, which is almost £60 cheaper than buying the items separately.
This comes only a week after a record number of Nintendo Switch consoles were sold during the week of November 15.
According to VGC, the launch of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl contributed to the success, with the pair of remakes selling over six million copies combined globally in their first weekend on sale.
