The software sales on the Switch will be down from Q2, but Hardware sales will be up considerably. Ring Fit has continued to see growth, while Animal Crossing's bundle discontinuation actually slowed its sales compared to what I expected. There is actually a 3rd Party game in the Top 5 - eBaseball. Finally I think Paper Mario performed below my expectations and isn't showing legs of as of right now.
