Nintendo has released its final financial report for the fiscal year ending March 2023, giving us an updated look at the best-selling games on Switch.<\/p>\n

With the last report<\/a> back in February, we were impressed to see Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet<\/a> bursting into the top-ten list despite only one month of data being available for the game, and this time we can see that Game Freak’s latest is holding the exact same spot with a total of 22.10 million units to its name (as of March 2023).<\/p>\n

In fact, almost the entire list is the same as last quarter, with the exception of Pok\u00e9mon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! & Let’s Go, Eevee!<\/a>, which slides off the top 10 thanks to the appearance of New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe<\/a> which jumps into 9th place with a cool 15.41 units sold, pushing Ring Fit Adventure into 10th.<\/p>\n

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe<\/a> remains unbeaten at the top of the list, improving from the last report’s 52 million units to reach an eye-watering 53.79 million copies sold \u2014 will it ever slow down?<\/p>\n
