The company added in its report that after seven weeks, which is past the June 30 date, Switch 2 has sold over 6 million units.

Switch 2 software sales amount to 8.67 million units as of June 30, with the Mario Kart World launch game representing 5.63 million units, including bundle pack-ins. Digital game sales accounted for 59.3% of total software sales.

The Switch console has sold 153.10 million units as of June 30. This number includes sales for the Nintendo Switch, Lite, and OLED consoles. Switch software sales amount to 1.415 billion units. The Switch sold 0.98 million units so far in the fiscal year, a 53.5% year-on-year decline that the company had expected. Switch software sales for this fiscal year so far are 24.40 million units, a 20.4% year-on-year decline. The company notes that Switch games are also playable on Switch 2.

The Switch 2 sold over 3.5 million units worldwide in the first four days following its release on June 5. According to the company, this is the highest global sales amount for any Nintendo hardware within its first four days.

Nintendo is forecasting it will sell 15 million Switch 2 consoles in the new fiscal year, which will end on March 31, 2026. The company is predicting it will sell 4.5 million Switch consoles in the next year.

Nintendo released the new Switch 2 console worldwide on June 5.

Nintendo launched the Switch console in March 2017.

The Switch surpassed Sony‘s PlayStation 4 and Nintendo‘s Game Boy/Game Boy Color as the third best-selling console of all time as of the end of 2022. It now stands behind only the PlayStation 2 and Nintendo DS (and if Nintendo‘s forecast is correct, the Switch will surpass the DS in the next fiscal year).

Nintendo is raising the price of Switch, Lite, and OLED consoles in the U.S. “based on market conditions.” The company is also raising the prices for certain Nintendo Switch 2 accessories, amiibo, and the Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo product. New tariffs are scheduled to take effect in the U.S. on August 7.
