We recently got to know the devastating sales of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, which sold over 11 million copies in 11 days and over 13 million copies in its first 6 weeks. These figures are really impressive due to the short time in the market that the game has been running and it seems that we are not the only ones who have been shocked.
The president of NintendoShuntaro Furukawa recently acknowledged, at this week's financial results session, that Animal Crossing: New Horizons sales already exceed what they expected the game to sell throughout its lifetime. We leave you with his statements:
Animal Crossing: New Horizons' initial sales speed was much higher than originally expected. It was a title that had created high expectations among customers, so we aimed to sell the current number of units but throughout its entire useful life. However, the amount of sales from the time of launch is going at a much faster rate than we expected. It is selling a lot, as I mentioned in the description of financial results above, mainly among fans of the series that is between 20 and 30 years old.
What do you think?
