Nintendo fiscal year sales drop 30% ahead of Switch 2 launch

Nintendo reported relatively weak sales of 1,164.9 billion yen for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, down 30.3% from 1,671.8 billion yen a year earlier.

But the company was bullish about its Switch 2 forecast, as it expects 15 million units of Switch 2 hardware to sell in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, and 45 million copies of Switch 2 software. In the same period it expects to sell 4.5 million units of the Switch, and 105 million Switch games.
