Basically, with Switch 1 you got a new mainline Zelda, (and a revolutionary one at that) 3D Mario, and Splatoon in the first 9 months; these are substantially bigger hitters than series like Donkey Kong, Kirby, et al on Switch 2 sales wise.

Aslo the Switch1 was not backwards compatible. If you wanted to play something you needed to buy it for the system. Switch2 is backwards compatible. As example Nintendo said 40% of Tomodachi Life was played on Switch2. But obviously they count as Switch1 game sales.

A good point.

IIRC the way they report sales of Switch 2 editions titles also favours Switch 1.
