I've been tracking Suning, one of the largest non-government Chinese B2C retailers with 1600 stores covering over 700 cities of China. 

Ring Fit Bundle has added like over 1.500 reviews in under a week and is currently the top selling video game hardware on their online store. 

Some more info about this an a comparison to how PS4/PS5 are doing on their store. On Amazon.co.jp Switch has only amassed around 60.000 reviews(granted Amazon.co.jp is probably a much smaller part of the Japanese video game market compared to how big Suning is for China).

That Ring Fit Bundle is basically printing money.

I'm not sure how well the Switch Lite will do in China though.  The main system sellers there so far are RFA and Mario Kart 8.  RFA needs the base model and Mario Kart 8 is multiplayer which means it's a lot better on the base model.  I think they need to localize something like Animal Crossing or Pokemon to really move the Lite model.
