Nintendo announced Dec. 12 that it has sold 10 million units of its Switch console to retailers in just over 9 months. For comparison, its last console, the Wii U, has only sold a total of 13.6 million units since it went on sale in November 2012.

This isn’t Nintendo’s best-selling console by a long shot, but according to Variety, the Switch has the potential to pass the Wii—Nintendo’s most popular console ever—in its first-year sales if it sees strong holiday sales.
