Earlier this week, a Nintendo earnings report was released Crossing the Animals: New Horizons he had sold 11.77 million copies in just 12 days, making it the "best start" title for the Nintendo switch. The chart released by the company detailed how the game changed 13.41 million copies in the first six weeks – bringing out the 3DS and DS entries well over the same period.
It's not just fans who have been impressed by these first sales figures, either. It turns out that Nintendo was also crazy about them. When launching a Q&A investment company, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa said the sale "exceeded" the company's expectations and that they had already exceeded their health goals. Here's the full translation on Oni_Dino for Nintendo All:
The first sale of Animal Crossing: New Horizons has exceeded our expectations. We looked at the current sales numbers in the game's lifetime considering that fans waited so long for the game, but it all happened at a much faster rate than we expected.
Furukawa also revealed that "about 50%" of How Animals Fall: New Horizons players, from Japan, America and Europe, have chosen a copy of the digital game. New Horizons has already broken the best-selling list of games on the switch, and they have now acquired the technology Pokémon: Let's go, Pikachu! and Let's go, Eevee! based on sales that lasted six weeks. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is still ahead of the $ 24.77 million sale so far.
