Nintendo Switch 2 Breaks Records with 3.5 Million Sales in Opening Weekend, Surpassing Original Switch’s First Month by Nearly a Million

Hey, so guess what happened recently? Nintendo just dropped this bombshell with their new Nintendo Switch 2. And yeah, it’s a big deal. Like, they sold 3.5 million of these things in just four days! Honestly, not sure if it was the hype or what, but it definitely blew past the old Switch’s record from 2017. Crazy, right?

They’re boasting about this milestone — obviously, because why not? — claiming it’s the fastest-selling Nintendo gadget ever in those initial days. And they’ve already hit, like, a fifth of their target to unload 15 million units by March 2026. Impressive? Yeah, I think so.

But wait, not everything was sunshine and rainbows. Some folks at a GameStop in New York got their Switch 2 boxes with staples through the screens. Seriously? Imagine opening up your brand spanking new console only to see that mess. Ugh. Anyway, they fixed it, but still, talk about a bummer.

Over in the UK, people had a different kind of weird. Their Switch 2 boxes showed up unsealed. Like, what even? Turns out the tape on these boxes decided to peace out mid-transit, leaving them looking pretty sad.

Now, let’s talk tech — or try to. The Switch 2’s got this new Joy-Con 2 thingy with optical sensors. You can wave them around like a mouse for aiming, which sounds cool if you’re into precision. Plus, the screen’s bigger. It’s a 7.9-inch with 1080p and 120Hz. Translation: should look slick.

Under the hood, it’s packed. Eight ARM Cortex A78C cores and some big-sounding stuff from Nvidia. Not to mention 12GB of memory and a decent 256GB storage setup. And for those feeling extra DIY, there’s this nifty microSD slot that can supposedly handle M2 NVMe SSDs? I mean, who even comes up with this?

So, despite all this, Switch 2 is actually not too hard to find. GameStop and Best Buy still have some, plus UK retailers.

Oh, and hey, if that wasn’t enough, follow Tom’s Hardware on Google News or whatever to stay in the loop. Or don’t. But do, if you want to.
