Supplementary notes
The number of Nintendo Switch annual playing users refers to the number of Nintendo Accounts, out of all Nintendo Accounts registered to a Nintendo Switch system, that used Nintendo Switch software one or more times during the 12-month data aggregation period. Users who did not agree to share their information are excluded, and certain services such as Nintendo eShop do not count towards annual playing users. Due to reasons such as play data being aggregated only when users are connected to the internet, results for past periods may be retroactively updated.
