NES Classic Edition has sold 2.3 million copies, said Reggie Fils-Aime (Reggie Fils-Aime), the President of Nintendo of America. Recall that the Japanese decided to complete the production of a retro console.
Reggie said: “We planned that this will be the console of one of the festive period. We did not expect that the popularity will be so high. We have released more devices to satisfy demand. However, we have limited resources. We look to the future.” And the future of Nintendo is definitely Switch.
Rumor has it that by next Christmas, Nintendo released the SNES Classic Mini.
