Mario Kart 8 Deluxeis still on top
Nintendo has provided new top-selling investor relations software sales dataon its official site, and the top 10 has shifted slightly. So what changed?
Well, interestingly enough,Pokemon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearldropped off the list entirely, despite holding firm at the number eight slot the last time we checked in. Essentially taking its spot in the top 10,Pokemon Scarlet & Violetshot up to seventh place, whileSuper Mario Party, Ring Fit Adventure,andPokemon Let’s Go Pikachu/Eeveerefused to leave. The top six best-sellers (below) remain exactly the same.
In terms of sales, everything shot up a bit, ranging from 1-4 million more sales since the last August 01, 2025 marker, withMario Kart 8pushing a remarkable 1.6 million units in that timeframe. you may see why it continues to shoot out DLC! Other top games held on, includingZelda: Breath of the Wild, which will likely continue getting a big bump fromZelda: Tears of the Kingdomthroughout the year.
As for what’s next, expectScarlet & Violetto climb considerably, likely overtakingPokemon Sword/Shieldeventually as the best-sellingPokemongame on Switch. It’s a shameLegendsstill isn’t anywhere to be found!
