The year 2019 does not end for Nintendo without the publication of the annual charts. Unsurprisingly, the titles downloaded most frequently from Nintendo eShop include several in-house Nintendo classics. However, the list is headed by one of the currently most successful games of all: Fortnite.
No surprise: Fortnite tops the charts
The battle royale shooter Fortnite tops the list of the 25 most popular games for Nintendo Switch – at least in the download version from the Nintendo eShop. This is not surprising for several reasons. On the one hand, Fortnite is available for free as a free-2-play game, and on the other hand, the shooter is currently one of the most successful video games in the world. The fan base is large – also on the Nintendo Switch.
Nintendo made it to second place with its in-house Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. The Beat'em Up is one of the most anticipated games for Nintendo Switch and can therefore get a top 3 placement. Nevertheless: It is a small surprise that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate of all places was able to establish itself at the top. The price of the game remained stable throughout the year, but it still sold extremely well.
