The data is updated as of September 30, 2021, when the latest fiscal quarter (which began on July 1) ended.

Specifically, the infographic below shows exactly how many Nintendo Switch units have been shipped to retailers. 92.87 million units of the hybrid console have found a friendly store shelf.

This means that the console has shipped 3.83 million units worldwide during the quarter (compared to 3.3 million PS5 and 0.2 million PS4 units shipped by Sony in the same period).

The press release also includes the outlook for the full fiscal year ending on March 31, 2022. Nintendo predicts to ship 24 million Switch units in the twelve-month period, which would bring the total to 108.59 million units if the goal was achieved.

This is lower than the previous forecast that mentioned 25.5 million units to be sold during this fiscal year due to the ongoing semiconductor shortage. On the other hand, the forecast for the software units to be shipped during the fiscal year has been increased from 190 million to 200 million.

If you want to compare, you can check out the previous update that was released in August and was related to the fiscal quarter that ended on June 30, 2021.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
