Expectedly, it’s been another big one at Nintendo Life this week.

Beating the PS4’s record with the help of Mario Kart.
Following Nintendo’s news about the Switch 2 becoming the “fastest-selling Nintendo hardware” ever in the US, we’ve now got some numbers to go with it, courtesy of Circana’s analyst Mat Piscatella.
According to Piscatella, this is an “all-time launch week unit sales record for video game hardware in the US”, with “over 1.1 million units sold” (week ending June 7, 2025).
