The Nintendo Switch generation has been massive for the console maker, with many of their first-party titles easily selling in excess of 10 million copies. With the Switch 2 closing in on its 1 year anniversary, Nintendo has shared an updated list of its game sales – confirming that multiple titles are nearing major milestones.

As published to its IR Information page, Nintendo shared updated sales stats for all of its Switch generation games (up until the 31st of March 2026).

In terms of Switch 2 exclusives, there are already a number of big successes, with the most notable being Mario Kart World (currently at 14.7 million copies sold). It is worth stressing that World was offered as part of a launch console bundle and so its numbers are somewhat skewed.

The second best-selling Switch 2 exclusive meanwhile is Donkey Kong Bananza, which has so far sold a total of 4.52 million units. In terms of more recent releases, Pokemon Pokopia has managed to sell-through 4 million copies during its first 5 weeks.

Of course, Nintendo has also released many different Switch 2 Editions of past games, helping to push these last-gen titles to new heights. Some of the biggest in this regard include:

• Animal Crossing: New Horizons (49.91 million)
• The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (33.84 million)
• The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom  (22.56 million)
• Super Mario Party Jamboree (9.96 million)

In case you missed it, Nintendo also shared updated sales stats for its consoles, confirming that the Switch 2 is closing in on 20 million units sold. Full details on the hardware breakdown can be found HERE.

As we officially move closer towards 2026 being half-over, global analytics firm Newzoo's latest monthly report provides an insight into which of the biggest releases in March 2026 drove engagement and revenue, and which of this year's releases are at the top of the charts one quarter into the year. Unsurprisingly, it's Crimson Desert, Pokémon Pokopia, and Resident Evil Requiem at the top of the charts. All three games are at the top of the chart for best-selling games by revenue between January and March 2026. Requiem sits at the top, followed by Crimson Desert in second and Pokopia in […]

One of Nintendo’s big exclusives for 2026 is Pokémon Pokopia – an Animal Crossing styled life-sim spin-off “devoted to crafting, creating, and building”. Representing one of the highest rated Pokémon games in years, Pokopia appears to be off to a strong start (for a Pokémon spin-off at least) having officially sold over 2.2 million copies in its first 4 days.

Making the announcement via a press release, Nintendo and The Pokémon Company revealed that “global sales of Pokémon Pokopia for the Nintendo Switch 2 system have surpassed 2.2 million units (including 1 million units sold in Japan) in the first four days since its worldwide launch on March 5, 2026.”

While 2.2 million copies in 4 days is a major achievement for any title, its quality-to-sales ratio is rather poor for a Pokémon game. For context, Pokémon’s most recent release prior to Pokopia – Legends Z-A – managed to sell 5.8 million units in its first week, despite being a pretty polarising title.

To put things into further context, the previous mainline Pokémon game (Scarlet and Violet) managed to shift a whopping 10 million copies in its first 3 days on the market. Of course, even amongst Pokémon spin-offs, Pokoipia is an entirely different type of game (a $70 one at that) and so it likely won’t reach the upper echelons of the franchise best-sellers.

That said, considering its high praise and Animal Crossing-esque gameplay loop, Pokopia could very well wind up selling 10s of millions of copies. We will have to wait longer to find out.

The latest Pokémon game is a cozy life simulator like "Animal Crossing" or "Minecraft," but in a way that feels more grounded to our actual world.

When it comes to showing off its upcoming releases, Nintendo has settled on two primary outlets: its Direct Showcases as well as Nintendo Treehouse streams. Announcing the latter, the Switch 2 maker has now confirmed that a Nintendo Treehouse will be going live later today – taking a look at the Switch 2 Edition of Mario Bros. Wonder as well as the much-anticipated Pokemon Pokopia.

Taking to Twitter to make the announcement, the official Nintendo of America page wrote: “Join us on Feb 24 at 2pm PT [10PM UK Time] for a new Nintendo Treehouse: Live presentation featuring hands-on gameplay of #SuperMarioBrosWonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park and #PokemonPokopia.”

For the uninitiated, Nintendo’s Treehouse streams are typically reserved for deep-dives into its games, and so while we have already heard plenty regarding Meetup in Bellabel Park and Pokopia, this upcoming event should present a more in-depth and uncut look at these two upcoming releases.

Between the two titles, Pokopia is of course the more interesting game, being a brand new title from the team behind Dragon Quest Builders 2. Mario Bros. Wonder on the other hand originally released back in 2023 for the OG Switch, and so fans already know what to expect for the most part.

Regardless, it will be interesting to see what Nintendo has to say regarding these two titles when the Treehouse stream goes live later tonight at 10PM.
