The detailed sales volume of Nintendo Switch has not been revealed and Nintendo does not disclose "the number of units sold for two days from the launch of Wii", so the exact number of how much Nintendo Switch sold is unknown. The number that seems to be one indicator is that the number of units sold during the 8 days from the launch of Wii is "600,000 units", but at the time of article creation, even one week has not passed since the release of Nintendo Switch .

The release date of Wii in North America is November 19, 2006, which was an exquisite timing aimed at gifts demand for the holiday season. In contrast, the Nintendo Switch was timing away from March 3 and the holiday season. Still Nintendo Switch has a wonderful start beyond the sales record of Wii, it can be said that there is a bright sign for Nintendo.

According to Mr. Wingfield of the New York Times,The Legend of Zelda Breath of the WildIt seems to be updating the fastest sales record as a launch title as well.
