Whoa
Nintendo just gave us an update of their top 10 best-selling Switch game list, and it’s a doozy! Although not a whole lot changed per se, the rich just keep getting richer as Nintendo continues to sell through a ton of software.
The last update was through June 01, 2025, but now we have a better idea of how several titles are selling through as of June 21, 2025 thanks to a new report this morning.Mario Kart 8 Deluxehas pushed all the way up to 28.99 million units sold, a roughly 2.2 million increase since the June 30 report. It’s still the crown jewel of the Switch and refuses to give up its throne.
Animal Crossing: New Horizonshowever is nipping at its heels, commanding a powerful 26.04 million units sold as of the end of September, a nearly four million unit increase since the last period.Smash Ultimatealso sold a little over a million more units to hit 21.10 million, whileZeldasold nearly a million more, a testament to its pedigree and long word of mouth tail (my wife just started playingBreath of the Wildrecently, so I’ve seen it first-hand!).
Pokemon SwordandShieldhit the 19 million mark with around .8 million more units sold, whileMario Odysseypeddled nearly a million more copies in that same period.Let’s Go Pikachusaw one of the smallest gains with just .29 million more units, withSuper Mario Partyseeing gains of .16 million units, andSplatoon 2increasing by roughly .5 million.New Super Mario Bros. Deluxeis hanging on to that number 10 spot with 8.32 million units sold, a roughly .9 million unit increase from the June 30 report.
What does this all mean? Well, first-party Nintendo games, which rarely, if ever, go down in price, are still crushing it. I wonder if we’ll see another game creep up onNew Super Mario Bros.in the next six months. You can find the full list below!
