With the Switch 2 quickly selling 3.5 million units and becoming Nintendo's fastest-selling hardware, perhaps it's no surprise that its big launch title Mario Kart World has also got off to a flying start, but it's seemingly demolished the physical releases of Switch 1 launch title Zelda: Breath of the Wild and its direct predecessor Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in Japan.
In a new report (which we've machine translated), Japanese outlet Famitsu estimates that Mario Kart World sold 782,566 physical retail copies in Japan alone in its first three days. This figure includes copies of the game included in Switch 2 bundles, it should be noted.
