Last year, Super Smash Bros Ultimate was advertised as the best-selling Switch game of all time, with three million units sold in 11 days. If sales were calculated separately for both Sword and Shield versions, they would easily surpass it, but Nintendo hasn't provided specific figures for each version.
In the United States alone, Pokemon Sword and Shield sold over two million units in the first two days, making them a duo of Pokemon games with staggering revenue in this region in just 2 days, not even a week.
Before its release, the game duo attracted a lot of negative feedback from the community, especially as it was their debut on the Nintendo Switch. Some criticisms about the game's graphics quality were highlighted by gamers. However, overall reviews were positive, with a average score of 82/100 on Metacritic.
It's fascinating to see the Pokemon Sword and Shield game duo kick off so strongly, despite the prior negative feedback surrounding them before launch, which hasn't deterred Nintendo enthusiasts. With the holiday season approaching, it's highly likely that these numbers will continue to rise sharply in the coming weeks.
If you're a fan of the Pokemon game series, then Pokemon Go will undoubtedly not disappoint. Pokemon Go is an incredibly engaging augmented reality creature-catching game for mobile devices, continuously adding and updating features to provide players with a better, more enjoyable experience, especially without getting boring.
