Nintendo Switch 2 best-selling games: Mario Kart World hits 14.7m sales

Nintendo updated its best-selling Switch 2 games roster, which demonstrated that the console's exclusive titles had maintained strong sales performance since their launch. Up to March 31, the sales statistics showed that Mario Kart World had become the top-selling game for the console with 14.7 million units sold.

The best five exclusive games for the Nintendo Switch 2 that have seen the most sales include Mario Kart World (14.7 million units), Donkey Kong Bananza (4.52 million units), Pokemon Legends: Z-A (3.94 million units), Pokemon Pokopia (2.41 million units), and Kirby Air Riders (1.87 million units).

The game that has seen the most remarkable increase in sales is Pokémon Pokopia. The financial report of Nintendo indicated that Pokopia had already surpassed 4 million units in sales.

Launched just two months ago, Pokopia already threatens to surpass Pokemon Legends: Z-A and potentially challenge Donkey Kong Bananza's position.

Mario Kart World's dominance owes partly to its inclusion in millions of Switch 2 launch bundles, an advantage Pokopia doesn't yet share. A new Pokopia bundle is confirmed for Australia and New Zealand, which could accelerate sales if expanded globally.

If bundled availability increases, Pokopia could eventually rival Mario Kart World's numbers.

Notably, Nintendo console's price increase to $499.99 on September 1 will decrease Switch 2 sales, which will affect game sales. The console requires higher starting costs, which would stop users from buying it despite already having 20 million systems in use.
