Nintendo’s latest financials are live, and one of the key stories is the fact that the Switch has overtaken both the Wii and Sony PlayStation in terms of lifetime hardware sales.

The Nintendo Hybrid System has sold a total of 103.54 million units worldwide since its launch in 2017. This number consists of the Standard System, the Switch Lite and the Switch OLED Model.

Here’s how we break down total hardware sales over the past 12 months:

Standard – 11.79 million OLED – 3.9 million lite – 3.17 million

The Wii sold 101.63 million systems during its lifespan, while the original PlayStation sold 102.49 million.

Here’s how the Switch compares to the other best-selling dedicated gaming platforms of all time:

Total system sales PlayStation 2 155 million Nintendo DS 154.02 million Game Boy & Game Boy Color 118.69 million PlayStation 4 116.6 million Nintendo Switch 103.54 million PlayStation 102.49 million Nintendo Wii 101.63 million PlayStation 3 87.4 million (approx) Xbox 360 84 million (approx.) )) Game Boy Advance 81.51 million

This means that the Switch is now the most successful Nintendo home console ever. It still has some way to go before it can cross the line of Nintendo DS systems and become the company’s most successful gaming platform, but given that it reached 100 million unit sales in five years — and is converting about 20 million units annually at the moment — it could Its sales exceed 155 million.
