"Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa acknowledged that Switch 2 hardware sales were slightly weaker than expected outside Japan towards the end of 2025, while exceeding expectations domestically due to strong performances from Pokémon Legends: Z-A Nintendo Switch 2 Edition and Kirby Air Riders."
If you compare shipments to switch 1's first holiday quarter, Japan was a massive 37% higher for Switch 2. But Shipments to Americas were down by 18%, Europe+Other down by 14%.
So yeah Japan is going crazy for SW2 while other regions were a bit cooler on SW2 over the holidays.
