Nintendo has sold over 6 million Switch 2s but still can't keep up with demand
Nintendo has sold over 6 million Switch 2 consoles in less than four weeks, outpacing the original Switch's sales. Despite the impressive figures, the company is struggling to meet the overwhelming demand for the new console. Nintendo expects to hit its target of 15 million units sold by April 2026, which would surpass the original Switch's sales. The strong sales performance is attributed to the Switch 2's backwards compatibility with previous Switch titles, as well as the success of new games like Donkey Kong Bananza and the Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle. Nintendo's overall revenue more than doubled in the latest quarter, reaching 572.3 billion yen ($3.8 billion) with a 56.9 billion yen ($378 million) profit. The article notes that the initial headline and figures were incorrect, and have been updated to accurately reflect the sales data provided by Nintendo.
