The Nintendo Switch is coming up on its four-year anniversary soon. The hybrid console is a huge success around the world, and certainly in Japan as well. In fact, the Switch\u00a0made up 87% of all console sales in Japan in 2020<\/a>, and now it is continuing that momentum into 2021.<\/p>\n

Famitsu recently released the sales numbers for video game consoles for the week of January\u00a018, 2021, to January 24, 2021. The Nintendo Switch<\/a> again dominated, and the newly released PS5 trailed far behind.\u00a0Of course, it is very hard to find a PS5 right now, as they are often sold out.<\/p>\n

In that period of time, The Nintendo Switch sold\u00a0110,811 units between the standard and Switch Lite systems; very impressive numbers. During the\u00a0last two weeks of 2020, the Switch sold over half a million consoles in Japan<\/a>. While this January one-week span is not quite as high in sales, it is eye-opening in that it came without a holiday push and\u00a0without a big name release like a Mario, Pokemon, or Animal Crossing.\u00a0<\/em>Meanwhile, the PS5 sold 15,312 units during this same January one-week stretch.<\/p>\n

Nintendo dominated in terms of video game software sales in 2020<\/a> as well. Of course, as PS5 consoles become more available, it is likely that PlayStation will start to take a bite out of that percentage. However, Nintendo Switch has some huge games coming up or rumored to release in in 2021, like the Breath of the Wild<\/em> sequel, Monster Hunter: Rise, New Pokemon Snap, Neo: The World Ends With You, No More Heroes 3,<\/em>\u00a0and more. There are a lot of interesting games on the way that could help keep the momentum going for the Nintendo Switch; both in Japan and beyond.<\/p>\n
