Nintendo Switch has sold 19.7 million consoles, 87 million games to date

Nintendo reported net sales of $1.513 billion for the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, up 9 percent from $1.386 billion for the same period a year ago. Profit in the quarter was $394.6 million, up 42 percent from $278.5 million a year earlier.

The Kyoto, Japan-based company said in its quarterly earnings report that it has sold 19.67 million Nintendo Switch consoles to date and 86.9 million games. That means the rate of sales has slowed, as Nintendo had sold 17.79 million units as of March 31. But the June quarter is typically a slow season.
