Is the 2 million copies total for Super Mario Odyssey referring to worldwide or domestic? The article didn't specify.

I believe that 2 million for Mario is for Japan sales. NA sold another 1.1 million.

Amazingly, thanks largely to Mario, the Switch has sold approx 600,000 units in NA in October alone!

Amazing that the Switch will outsell the WiiU's total lifetime sales within it's first 9 months!

I can't wait to see how bonkers it sells when Pokemon drops.

Pretty sure the 2 million is worldwide, with US having more than half.

lol I can't think of a title released worldwide simultaneously where Japan has nearly 2x more sales than NA. Not even Splatoon 2 accomplished it.

The 2 million is worldwide. Japan-only sales are about half a million.

Pokémon debuting on the Nintendo Switch could takes its sales higher through the skies if all goes well. Smile

That's a lot of million. Nostalgia is strong for the SNES.
