In the ten months since the Nintendo Switch launched, it has already sold more units than it's predecessor - the Wii U. The success of the Switch has more than tripled Nintendo's profits compared to this time last year. BBC News has more:

The Kyoto-based company raised its profit forecast for the year ending March from 120 billion yen to 160 billion yen.

It said it expected Switch sales to reach 20 million this year and said a Pokemon game would be released for the Switch "in 2018 or later".

Super Mario Odyssey was the best-selling game for the Nintendo Switch, with 9.07 million copies sold since it was released in October.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - a rerelease of a Wii U title - has sold 7.33 million copies, with launch title The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild selling 6.70 million.
