Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is the fastest-selling Nintendo home console game in Europe ever
We already knew it was doing well from the UK figures released last week, but it seems Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's success knows no bounds.
An announcement from Nintendo UK's Twitter account states the title has broken the company's record as the fastest-selling Nintendo home console game in Europe - not just of this generation but of all time. This has got me wondering what the fastest-selling handheld game is - and isn't the Switch technically both things? I need answers, Nintendo!
In its very first weekend, Smash Bros. Ultimate sold more physical copies in the UK than Mario, Zelda, and the combined sales of Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu and Eeevee. Sales were 300 per cent higher than its Smash Bros. Wii U predecessor, but given the relative installed bases of the two consoles, that's hardly a surprise.
