Reading Nintendo's financial update I still got a question left. I might have missed it, but I'm in the dark how Nintendo will report on the Switch2 Edition software sales.

Mario Party Jamboree got a shout out with 1.16 million sales on page 11 (https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2025/251104_4e.pdf). But unsure if this includes the Switch2 Edition.

Are they added to the original Switch game's numbers or viewed as a separate Switch2 SKU and therefore only get reported on when selling more than 1 million in the Switch2 bucket? If the latter is the case, then no Switch2 Edition game made it over 1 million sales.

We might have to wait to end of FY year roundup to know the answer.

From what I can gather, physical copies of Switch 2 Editions like BOTW and TOTK count as Switch 2 software sales, but digital downloads count as Switch 1 sales.

That's just what I've read on places like Install Base, anyway.

According to the numbers we have, BOTW sold 300k and TOTK 220k this quarter, so those would be downloads and Switch 1 physical copies, while the physical Switch 2 edition sales would be tracked separately, for whatever reason.
