I had completely forgotten about the Chinese market, but reading the source, it seems as if the situation is unimaginable.

What happens when you add Korea and Southeast Asia to this list?

According to e-commerce website JD, which is offering Nintendo Switch 2 parallel imports from Hong Kong, the console sold over 400,000 units as of June 4, 2025. This is an increase of 70,000 units from late May.

It’s important to keep in mind that 400,000 units is the floor and not the ceiling for Nintendo Switch 2 in China, as we do not have sales numbers from other mainland Chinese retailers that sell the Switch 2, as well as sales numbers from Hong Kong retailers that export the console to the mainland. This means that the total number of units sold in mainland China are likely to be far higher than 400,000.

When the Switch 2 is about to become one of the most competitive market alongside the NA, Europe and Japan ... 

Thinking on it, that actually might be the factor that determines how it could actually maintain a faster pace than the OG Switch, at least in the initial years.

And all this time I was worried about the Switch 2 launch.
