# List of best-selling Nintendo Switch video games

This is a list of video games for the Nintendo Switch video game console that have sold or shipped at least one million copies.

By the end of 2020, total Nintendo Switch family units had outsold the lifetime sales of the Nintendo 3DS, its handheld console predecessor, by selling nearly 80 million units. As of December 31, 2024, 150.86 million Nintendo Switch consoles had been shipped, with over 1.35 billion copies of games having been shipped for the platform.
