While all eyes are on the Switch 2 console following the release of Nintendo's financial results briefing today, its predecessor has continued to cement itself as Nintendo's best-selling console of all time with 155.

Despite all this success, Nintendo has still lowered its expectations for the Switch 2. Over the next year the estimate has been reduced from 19.86 million new sales to 16.5 million, which is no small drop. Although the price increases—especially the far more significant rises in Japan—will likely make up for a big chunk of the expecting income.

Nintendo Switch 2 has sold 19.86 million units and Switch has sold 155.92  million units worldwide as of March 31, 2026, Nintendo announced in its latest earnings release.
