Insider Benji-salesTracking U.S. Gaming Market Raises Home Sales Forecast Animal Crossing: New Horizons in USA.

If we talk about international indicators, the insider believes that in just a few months New Horizons will surpass the seven-year sales of the previous part with Nintendo 3DS.

“Animal Crossing: New Leaf is now the most popular part of the series. Nintendo has sold 12 million copies in total. I expect Animal Crossing: New Horizons to exceed these numbers in just a few months,” he said.

The bad news for Nintendo is that there was a serious lack of Switch flagship models for the release of such an important game in stores. About two months ago, the company said that the outbreak of coronavirus led to problems with the production of consoles for the Japanese market. Stocks remained in the US and Europe, but now they too have begun to come to an end.

Fortunately, there are still Switch Lite models in the US, and it is they who, according to Benji-Sales, will pull Switch sales in March. Portable systems since its launch were much inferior in popularity to hybrid ones, but now new users who want to play Animal Crossing: New Horizons here and now have no choice.

The fact that the U.S. has created a serious shortage of Nintendo Switch, evidence from the Now In Stock tracker.
