Switch 2 Has Already Overtaken The Combined Lifetime Sales Of The Entire Xbox Series Family And PS5 Pro In Japan
The Switch 2 is off to an amazing start all over the world, but in Japan, its success has been especially remarkable; it's already the fastest-selling console in the nation's history, outperforming even the mighty PS2.
With 947,931 consoles sold at launch, the Switch 2 overtook the 630,552 set by Sony's second PlayStation. We now have the console's second-week figures in, which make for some interesting reading. The hybrid system's first-week momentum has slowed, as you might expect, but it has now sold 1,101,136 systems in its homeland.
This robust performance means that Switch 2 has already outsold the combined lifetime sales of the entire Xbox Series family in Japan—that includes the Series X (320,762), Series S (337,811) and Series X Digital Edition (20,854)—as well as the PS5 Pro (221,181).
