Switch 2 Sets UK Sales Record, Outperforming Initial Expectations

Nintendo’s Switch 2 has achieved a record-breaking launch in the UK, surpassing initial expectations and outperforming its predecessor. The console has sold over 200,000 units in France alone, doubling the previous record for fastest-selling console, according to reports. Demand for the new device has been exceptionally strong, leading to shortages at major retailers across the country, with shops like Currys experiencing stock limitations. This success comes despite initial price concerns regarding accessories and games that have been met with mixed reception from consumers.
