It's pretty safe to say that Nintendo consoles are wildly popular, with some like the Wii and DS going on to shift astronomical numbers, but just how many consoles has the gaming giant sold throughout history? You ignored the article's title, right?

That's right, Nintendo has now sold more than 750 million of the things. From the trusty NES to the fancy hybrid Switch, gaming fans all around the world have been snapping up Nintendo machines for the last thirty-odd years, with plenty of games to go alongside them, too.

The grand total stands at a mighty 752.21 million. That figure has been worked out by adding up all of the individual console totals we're about to share with you below, which have come directly from Nintendo and are correct as of 30th September 2019. Note that other consoles like the NES and SNES Classic Editions and the Virtual Boy aren't included, so it's technically a little higher.

Here's a list of Nintendo's home console sales:

Console (Home) Hardware Sales (Million) Software Sales (Million) Wii 101.63 921.19 NES 61.91 500.01 SNES 49.10 379.06 Nintendo Switch 41.67 246.01 Nintendo 64 32.93 224.97 GameCube 21.74 208.57 Wii U 13.56 102.96

And the handhelds, too:

Console (Portable) Hardware Sales (Million) Software Sales (Million) Nintendo DS 154.02 948.69 Game Boy/Game Boy Color 118.69 501.11 Game Boy Advance 81.51 377.42 Nintendo 3DS 75.45 380.72

The Switch certainly has the potential to push that figure towards the 800 million mark, and who knows - perhaps we'll see Nintendo hit one billion in our lifetimes?
