Nintendo Switch has been the most sold console in Spain during the past 2020. This has been shared by the Vandal media through a market study that has analyzed the sales of the main consoles in Spain throughout the past year, with the hybrid device of the Big N positioning itself as number 1 in sales in our country relentlessly and registering numbers that surpass the whole of the competition, that is, PS4, Xbox One, PS5 and Xbox Series X | S.

As a result of this study, a series of statistical data has been shared that only exemplifies the absolute dominance in sales of Nintendo Switch in Spain, practically, during every month of the past year. For example, Switch was number 1 in sales in Spain in 48 of the 53 weeks of 2020, surpassed only by PS4 during the first three weeks of the year and by the Xbox Series / PS5 binomial during its first week of launch.

These data lead us to the fact that Switch was the best-selling console in our country for 43 consecutive weeks, a record.
