Nintendo has announced that the Nintendo Switch is now the fastest-selling console in the US. The company has shipped over 4.8 million units in the US since its launch in March.

The sales figure surpasses that of the previous record holder, Nintendo's very own Wii console, that shipped roughly 4 million units in the same timeframe back in 2006.
