The Kyoto-based company says it has sold 5.82 million units since the system went on sale in early June and demand continues to outpace supply in most locations. Nintendo says it’s on track to sell 15 million units by the end of its fiscal year (in March of 2026).

Should it achieve that goal, that will make the Switch 2 a faster seller than the original Switch, which went on to become Nintendo’s best-selling console system. (The original took a full calendar year to hit the 15 million mark.)

That led to a strong quarter for the company. Revenues more than doubled compared to a year ago, coming in at $3.8 billion. Profits topped $378 million. Officials say Nintendo is on track to early $12.6 billion this fiscal year.

To make up for Switch 2 shortages, Nintendo plans to boost production – as many people who have ordered one have yet to receive theirs.

It’s not just game systems that are selling well. Switch 2 software sold 8.67 million units in the quarter, with Mario Kart World and the highly-rated Donkey Kong Bananza both leading the charge.

The Switch 2 is backwards compatible with the original Switch, so software sales for that older system were even higher. Nintendo says it sold 24.4 million Switch games in the quarter – along with nearly 1 million of the older consoles.
