Nintendo and The Pokemon Company have announced that Pokemon Pokopia sold 2.2 million copies in its first four days, with the Switch 2 exclusive already ranking among the top-selling spin-offs for the series.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is one of the best-selling games of all time, and even if it's not the best-selling Switch game ever, it's one of the five most successful Nintendo games of all time. Meanwhile, Pokemon is one of, if not the most successful media franchise ever, so merging the two is a bit of a no-brainer, and throw a bit of the best-selling game of all-time, Minecraft, in there, and you've got a recipe for success. And turns out that's exactly what happened, as reports of physical copies of the game being extremely hard to find are plentiful.
