List of best-selling Nintendo Switch 2 games

This is a list of the best selling video games for the Nintendo Switch 2 that have sold or shipped at least one million copies. As Nintendo shares the sales of their video games every quarter while most other publishers do not share sales figures per console, the top of this list consists mostly of Nintendo-published titles that have sold or shipped at least one million copies. The rest of the figures are from Japanese physical software sales, corroborated from weekly reports.

Nintendo Switch 2, a hybrid home console and handheld device, launched worldwide on June 5, 2025. Within the first four days, it has sold over 3.5 million units, making it the fastest-selling Nintendo console to date.[1] As of December 31, 2025, the Switch 2 has sold over 17.37 million units while its games have sold over 37.93 million units.[2][3]

By September 30, 2025, Mario Kart World became the best-selling Switch 2 title, selling over 9.57 million units worldwide.[3] 8.10 million of these units came from the console's bundle.[3]

As of December 31, 2025, Mario Kart World has sold 14.03 million units,[4][5][6] Donkey Kong Bananza has sold 4.25 million units,[7][8] and Kirby Air Riders has sold 1.76 million units.[9][10] Sales of games released on the original Nintendo Switch but rereleased with a "Nintendo Switch 2 Edition" are listed here.[11] In addition, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment reportedly sold over a million digital units.[12]

Third party games have had a softer launch than expected due to the ability to play original Nintendo Switch games on the platform, as well as consumer resistance to Game-Key Card games.[13][14]
