Nintendo Switch Surpasses 132 Million Units Sold, Next-Gen Plans Remain a Mystery

Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa declined to comment on plans for the company's next console as Nintendo Switch surpasses 132 million lifetime sales. Switch is now just over 21 million units away from becoming Nintendo's best-selling hardware ever. Nintendo reported operating profit and revenue that exceeded analysts' expectations, thanks in part to the weakness of the yen. Despite its age, Switch continues to perform strongly, with increased hardware and software sales in the first six months of this fiscal year. However, Switch hardware sales are declining, particularly outside of Japan. Nintendo aims to maximize hardware sales by releasing new offerings and plans to launch more titles in the coming months.
