RELATED: Nintendo Switch Shortages Expected to Continue in 2022
Alongside Nintendo’s most popular titles from 2020 and 2021, plenty of the Switch’s older staple titles continue to dominate the best-sellers list as some of the most popular games on the nearly five-year-old console. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild all sit within the Top 10 best-selling games despite each title being released within the first two years of the console’s lifespan.
Beyond the company’s massive success on the best-sellers list, 2021 also marked a significant year for Nintendo as the gaming juggernaut celebrated the 35th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda and 25th anniversary of Pokemon. The Legend of Zelda released Skyward Sword HD in July and has revealed plenty of information about the upcoming Breath of the Wild 2 while Pokemon recently debuted its Diamond and Pearl remakes with Pokemon Legends: Arceus coming early next year. 2021 has been a banner year for Nintendo and the developer will look to continue its success into 2022.
