After the symbolic milestone of 150 million sales, the Nintendo Switch is now facing a new obstacle: the PlayStation 2, the best -selling console in the world. With its 160 million copies sold through the globe, this competing machine released in 2000 has a difference of 10 million sales. A high step that Nintendo may not succeed in climbing, since the Nintendo Switch, released in 2017, will soon be obsolete and prehistoric with the arrival of the Switch 2.
However, it is not impossible that the Nintendo Switch could dethrone the Nintendo DS, the second best -selling console of all time, with nearly 154 million sales. It would then be necessary to sell almost 4 million times, and this in the space of a few months. A prowess to say the least titanic, but Nintendo is never immune to a surprise.
