New Pokémon Snap's Launch Sales More Than Doubled Those Of The N64 Original In The US Share: New Pokémon Snap has had a pretty solid start to life on Nintendo Switch, and the impressive sales stats just keep on coming. According to new NPD Group data, shared online by the company's executive director, Mat Piscatella, the game's US launch sales "more than doubled" those of the original game which launched on Nintendo 64 back in the summer of 1999. When you consider just how many Switch consoles have been sold compared to the number of N64s that were in homes back then, it's hardly all that surprising, but it's a positive sign for the sub-series nonetheless.
