Summary
Nintendo reported 26.35 million lifetime Switch 2 shipments by Sept. 30, alongside 157.20 million for the original Switch family.
Quarterly Switch 2 shipments totaled 2.67 million units and 73.21 million games shipped lifetime, while Nintendo kept its fiscal-year target unchanged at 16.50 million units.
The original Switch added 0.61 million units in the quarter and reached 1.59387 billion lifetime game shipments; the base model accounts for 97.94 million of its hardware total.
Mario Kart World led Switch 2 first-party software at 16.48 million copies, while Mario Kart 8 Deluxe remained the top Switch 1 title at 72.00 million.
The quarterly slowdown follows a 41% sales drop tied to price hikes in the U.S., Canada and Japan, which Nintendo had linked to rising memory costs.
