Unit sales of Nintendo Switch were the highest of any platform in a January month since the Nintendo Wii in January 2010, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War was January’s best-selling game and has been the best-selling game in the U.S. each month since its November launch, it now ranks as the 20th best-selling video game in U.S. tracked history.
