Animal Crossing: New Horizons and the best-selling game ever in Japan: Nintendo’s life simulator has reached 10.45 million copies sold, surpassing the record set years ago by Pokémon Red / Green / Blue for the Game Boy.
You will remember that at launch Animal Crossing: New Horizons quickly reached 6 million copies sold, achieving this result before anyone else also due to the particular period in which it debuted, in full pandemic and with the lockdown active.
Of course, we are convinced that the quarantine was only one of the factors that contributed to the game establishing this record, given that New Horizons has been able to deliver a very pleasant, colorful and truly rich in content experience to users, as in the best Nintendo tradition.
Looking at the ranking of the best-selling games ever in Japan, one frankly wonders if any other production will ever aspire to total similar numbers.
The aforementioned Pokémon Red / Green / Blue count on 10.23 million copies and to get to the first title for Nintendo Switch, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, you have to go down to fifth position with 6.65 million pieces.
