Ultimate, which has sold 34.66 million units, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild at 32.05 million, and Super Mario Odyssey with 28.21 million in sales. Recently launched, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has already achieved sales of 20.80 million since its debut in May 2023.

While these games boast strong lifetime sales, Nintendo reported a significant decline in software sales for the first quarter of the 2025 fiscal year, which dropped by 41.3 percent. During this timeframe, they sold a total of 30.64 million software units for the Switch, attributing the decrease to a lack of “special factors” compared to the previous year's quarter.
