Nintendo has published official sales figures for its Switch 2 first-party lineup, and Mario Kart World is running away with the top spot. The game moved 15.39 million copies through June 30, 2026 — a figure that includes units bundled with the now-discontinued $500 Switch 2 hardware bundle. Six Nintendo-published Switch 2 titles have crossed the 1 million mark in under a year since the console launched in June 2025.
Donkey Kong Bananza sits in second place with 4.78 million copies sold, followed closely by Pokemon Legends: Z-A at 3.99 million and Pokemon Pokopia at 3.68 million. Kirby Air Riders rounds out the top five at 1.90 million, while Super Mario Party Jamboree – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition lands at number six with 1.15 million copies. Nintendo published all of these figures directly on its official website.
Mario Kart World's 15.39 million figure is a striking launch-window number, though it benefits from bundle attachment — the game shipped alongside the console in that $500 pack before Nintendo pulled the bundle. The Mario Kart series has historically been one of Nintendo's strongest system sellers; Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on Switch 1 became the best-selling Mario Kart game of all time, so the franchise carrying the Switch 2 early on is no surprise. The Pokemon double-entry — two separate titles both clearing 3.5 million — underlines how reliably that franchise drives hardware adoption.
Nintendo also confirmed a Switch 2 price increase coming this September, pushing the standalone console to $500. With the holiday season approaching and more first-party titles expected, the sales rankings are likely to shift — but Mario Kart World's head start looks difficult to catch.
