Switch 2 Sales Fall as Software Sales Rise
Reports show hardware declines across recent periods: one cites a 41% quarterly year-over-year drop, while another reports a 37.4% decline to 6.49 million over two quarters alongside software growth of about 19%. Nintendo retained its 16.5 million-unit fiscal-year forecast and ruled out another price rise. Japanese weekly sales then rose from 21,792 to 68,733 units for October 26–November 1, with Minecraft debuting at 11,754; the cause of the weekly jump is unclear.
