Nintendo published their Nine Months Earnings Release/ Financial Results Briefing on Febraury 3rd, 2026. The Nintendo Switch 2 sales totaled 17.37 million units and the growth in sales of Nintendo Switch 2 hardware was driven by "Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle" as well as by "Nintendo Switch 2 + Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Bundle", which was released in October 2025.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A showed strong sales with 8.41 million units as of the third quarter of 2025. Since many Nintendo Switch titles are also being played on Nintendo Switch 2, titles released for Nintendo Switch in previous years also saw stable sales.
