    Nintendo Switch Sales Hit 80,000 Units in UK

    Nintendo revealed that the recently released Switch hit 80,000 units sold throughout the UK in its opening weekend. To put that into perspective, that figure is double the number of Wii U consoles that were sold during its opening weekend in 2013. Sadly, it fell well short of the 113,000 figure mark that the Nintendo 3DS sold during its debut weekend. It also didn't come close to hitting the 150,000 units sold by the Xbox One launch or the 250,000 hit by the PlayStation 4 launch. The...
