Nintendo Switch 2 sales momentum slows amid weak game lineup controversy

Nintendo’s next-generation Switch 2 achieved record sales after launch but saw a slowdown during its first year-end season in key markets, with declines in the United States, Britain and France. Demand appeared to plateau faster than expected in Europe, while Japan was more resilient, helped by a Japan-only low-priced model and insulation from exchange-rate swings. The original Switch’s continued sales and a thinner lineup of exclusive hits also weighed on Switch 2 momentum.
