Throughout the year, the Nintendo maintained the Switch’s solid sales volume, making the console the leader on the bestseller list for many months in various different countries.

Through its support page in Japan, the company advised customers that servers should be overloaded during the Christmas weekend and that they should anticipate their eShop purchases to avoid inconvenience.
This weekend, we’re expecting focused access to the Nintendo Account servers, which can make things inaccessible like creating an account right away on the server.
We recommend that those planning to use Nintendo Switch Family features for the first time create their own accounts in advance.

In Christmas 2020, the company had to deal with a huge server overload, causing people to be unable to download the games they bought from the eShop. It took the company a full day to restore the digital store’s services to millions of users.

Did you buy or know someone who is going to buy a Switch for Christmas?
