Nintendo has now sold 36.87 million Switch consoles after moving 2.13 million units in the April-June quarter, a 13 percent expansion year on year. Operating benefit for the three-month time frame was down 10.2 percent year on year to 27.4 billion yen ($252 million), while income was up 2.4 percent to 172 billion yen ($1.58 billion).

Nintendo has reason to be hopeful about Switch hardware sales throughout the next few months. August sees the release of a changed model with longer battery life, while in September the organization is propelling the Switch Lite, a fundamentally less expensive handheld-just version.

The $199 Switch Lite will be a significant gadget for Nintendo, in light of the fact that its other entry-level alternative is essentially dead. The organization transported only 200,000 units of the 3DS in the past quarter, with the complete life-to-date figure set at 75.28 million.

Nintendo’s big games for the holiday season incorporate Pokémon Sword and Shield, Luigi’s Mansion 3, and a remake of the classic Legend of Zelda title Link’s Awakening. In the event that the organization can coordinate its sales pace from the second half of a year ago, the Switch will end 2019 having sold a bigger number of units than the SNES, one of Nintendo’s most cherished consoles ever.
