If you have had a hard time buying the new Nintendo console at a store recently, there may be a good reason for that. New York Times&#8217; Nick Wingfield has reported that the Switch sale between Friday &#8211; Saturday has surpassed the first 2-day sale for any previous console in the history of Nintendo, making Switch the fastest seeling console in the first 2 days. This information came from an interview with Reggie Fils-Aime, president of Nintendo America. Remember, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/preorders-nintendo-switch-device-sold\/\" target=\"_blank\">first batch of Switch were sold out pretty quickly<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Also, from that same interview, more interesting information regarding the launch of the Switch console are obtained. Besides Switch being the fastest selling console in 2 days, we also know that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the best launch title in Nintendo&#8217;s history. It has managed to beat out Super Mario 64&#8217;s record for the Nintendo 64. This is remarkable, since it is a standalone game, not pack-in with the console like Wii U&#8217;s Nintendo Land mini games collection. You can read about the first look of the new Zelda game <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/legend-of-zelda-breath-wild-review\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/switch-e1488953685608.webp \"  type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/switch-e1488953685608.png\" height=\"250\" width=\"444\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-40817 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"fastest selling console\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/p>\n<p>It is still too early to tel whether the Switch will be a big hit for Nintendo or not, or even compare it to the company&#8217;s last success device &#8211; the Wii. However, with this initial success of being the fastest selling console of Nintendo, the future looks good for this new device. It is more amazing that the typical console is usually launched in November. This is proof that people will buy a console whenever they want, as long as it is worth doing so.<\/p>\n<h3>Nintendo Switch: The future is bright<\/h3>\n<p>With the Switch doing so well initially, Nintendo surely can look forward to a good future with this home console.
