Not bad at all when you consider this is MH.

Anyway, this is what really grap my attention.

18. [NSW] FIFA 18 – 3,720 / 78,169

20. [NSW] Monster Hunter XX – 3,162 / 207,939

Fifa18 charted on Japan and Switch owners are kinda sending a message here to Capcom with XX.

Re: Nintendo Releases Stunning Third Quarter Financial Results, Confirms Switch Sales Have Overtaken Wii U

JJ286

The Nintendo Switch sold 14.86 million consoles in 10 months.
According to Wikipedia, the original Wii shipped 13.17 million units by September 2007, a little over 10 months after its launch. So the Switch is currently outpacing the Wii, although after 10 months the Wii entered its second holiday season and will definitely retake the lead.
What about the DS? Surprisingly, it had a slow start, shipping 8.83 million units after 10 months.
And the PS4? After exactly 12 months, it sold 14.4 million units. Just for some perspective.

Re: Olé! Sales Of Nintendo Switch In Spain Have Now Surpassed Xbox One

@SLIGEACH_EIRE I think the Switch will surpass those 3DS figures. Games like Metroid 4, Pokemon Switch, Animal Crossing Switch and Smash DX are still to come. Plus the next Zelda and the next Mario Odyssey.

You extrapolate sales but you don't take into consideration the insane library differences when it comes to games. I'm pretty sure 3DS sales weren't steady all the time, they must have spikes when key games were release. The same will hold true for the Switch.
