Operating profit reached 145.1 billion yen (approx. 1.37 trillion KRW), up 19.5% year-on-year. The primary driver of this revenue growth is the strong sales performance of the Nintendo Switch 2.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is Nintendo's next-generation console, which launched on June 5. Sales of the original Switch hardware reached 1.89 million units, a 60% decrease year-on-year.

Reflecting this, Nintendo has also raised its annual software sales target from 45 million to 48 million units.
