Nintendo announced today that the Switch was the best-selling console in the U.S. in December, according to The NPD Group. And the 3DS, despite its age, didn’t do too bad either.

The Switch sold over 1.5 million systems in the five-week reporting period of December. Lifetime sales for Nintendo’s latest machine are at 4.8 million in the U.S. since launching in March 2017, making it the country’s fast-selling home console in history.
