		</div><p>Sales of Nintendo’s Switch console have moved past 10 million units in Europe, the gaming giant has revealed.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>First released in 2017, the Switch’s hybrid set-up as a mobile device which can also be placed into a dock and used as a home console system helped the Japanese firm return to profitability.</p>
<p>A Lite version of the console, which is a dedicated handheld device, also went on sale in September.</p>

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">More than 10 million consoles in the <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/NintendoSwitch?src=hash&;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#NintendoSwitch</a> family have been sold across Europe! <a href="https://t.co/lZLsyg98aS">pic.twitter.com/lZLsyg98aS</a></p>

<p>The company said sales this year were up 30% on last year, and 40% on 2017.</p>
<p>Stephan Bole, Nintendo’s European president, said: “The Nintendo Switch family of consoles is being enjoyed by millions of players across Europe, and passing such a major milestone is testament to its broad appeal.</p>
<p>“European sales of Nintendo Switch hardware and software are growing significantly each year, and existing and new console owners have a wealth of titles to choose from, with plenty more on the way.”</p>
<p>The firm also revealed that more than 36 million Nintendo-published games had been bought by Switch owners.</p>
<p>Nine of the company’s own-published games have exceeded the one million sales mark in the process, Nintendo said, including Super Mario Odyssey and The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild.</p>
<p>The popularity of the Switch has helped re-establish Nintendo as a heavyweight in the console market alongside the market leaders – Sony’s PlayStation and Microsoft’s Xbox.</p>
