Nintendo’s Switch already sold over 50 million units before the coronavirus pandemic, but after, demand dramatically increased. According to Business Insider, the console outsold Sony’s PayStation 4 and Microsoft's Xbox One. NPD Group analyst Mat Piscatella said the Switch “set a new all-time record for hardware unit sales in a March month.” They reported hardware spending growing by 63 percent compared to the prior year to $461 million. Nintendo then released “Animal Crossing: New Horizons,” which became the fastest-selling game on the Nintendo Switch.
