While this means demand for Nintendo's Switch 2 is incredibly high in Japan, it also means the company doesn't have enough supply to keep up with it. Even so, Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa has said the company is working to increase production of the handheld/home console hybrid.
Nintendo no doubt wants to capitalize on the immediate success of the Switch 2, which is now the fastest-selling console in history with 3.5 million units sold in its first week. The company also revealed the Switch 2 sold 5.4 million units in its first month. For comparison, the original Switch sold 2.74 million units in its first month. Investors will also note that the Switch has sold 152.12 million units to date, making it the second-best-selling handheld and home console behind Sony's (SONY) PlayStation 2 and Nintendo's DS.
