In the past few weeks, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has dominated the Nintendo Switch eShop popularity chart. Although it is understood why the real reason is that it was evident that this situation was not going to be eternal. It was recently known that the Switch exclusive has already lost its crown to Minecraft: Dungeons.
There is one analyst Benji-Sales who has reported that Minecraft Dungeons is already at the top of the popularity of the United States Nintendo eShop. With this, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has moved into second place on the digital store’s best-seller list.
The other thing that should be mentioned is that the achievement of Animal Crossing: New Horizons is not a small feat. After all, it managed to stay on top for so long.

Now, it is important to note that this information does not mean that Minecraft Dungeons for Nintendo Switch has already exceeded sales of Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Actually, the list of best-selling games in the eShop presents the most popular games in digital format during the last 2 weeks. That is, it does not take into account the accumulated sales.
Minecraft Dungeons is available for PC, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4.
