An amazing quarter as expected and in fact even somewhat better than the Switch 2 than expected. This launch is truly extraordinary and could very well be a record the Switch holds forever. MKW didn't quite pull off the ridiculous feat of having a bigger attach rate than 100% like BOTW did but 97% is still insane but also expected since there was little reason to buy a Switch 2 in June if you weren't into MK. 

One negative thing of note is how much worse the profit margin is with the Switch 2 but that should improve as software sales on the Switch 2 increase and "Other" has had a start that's nearly as strong as Europe so if there's any area where the Switch 2 could exceed the Switch 1 it could be that. Also the annual playing users declined YoY again so time will tell how much growth the Switch 2 can cause for that. Time will also time how it'll sell going forward once demand is fully fulfilled but it seems pretty safe to say that sales will at worse remain great so they're for sure gonna destroy the hardware forecast.

Also for the Switch 1 there was a huge hardware decline YoY as expected but it'll still be selling a lot of software for a while yet. With the Switch 2 now out and prices increases starting to happen the decline should be bigger next time but it still has one more quarter above a million left in the tank with Q3 before sales start to fall.

What is the profit margin per Switch sold?
