  • Full‑year guidance now calls for 19 million Switch 2 consoles and 48 million software units by March 31, 2026, up from 15 million and 45 million respectively.
  • Switch 2 software reached 20.62 million units, led by Mario Kart World at 9.57 million (about 8.1 million bundled) and Donkey Kong Bananza at 3.49 million.
