Above is Takashi Mochizuki’s tweet about Nintendo’s financial results for this past fiscal quarter (April to June). Note that the part about Game-Key Cards and “light users” are Mochizuki’s unsourced personal opinions. This is not in either the English or Japanese version of Bloomberg report.
To judge whether the Switch 2 software sales were “weak”, beware of these quirks:
- Bundled games’ units sold are counted as software, but their revenue is classified as hardware.
- Switch 2 Edition games’ physical sales are attributed to NS2, but their digital sales are counted as NS1.
