will stop selling all family consoles to retailers and its own online store in mid-February 2027. This marks the end of a ten-year run that began when the hybrid console launched in March 2017. The discontinuation affects the standard Nintendo Switch, the Nintendo Switch Lite, and the Switch OLED Model. Buyers who want to purchase new hardware from official channels must act before the February deadline.

Nintendo ends hardware sales for Switch family in February 2027

The Nintendo Switch family has become one of the best-selling gaming platforms in history. As of December 31, 2025, the console had sold 155.37 million units worldwide. This total allows the Switch to overtake the Nintendo DS as the second best-selling console of all time. The hardware serves as a bridge between home TV gaming and portable play, a model that defined its commercial success.

Nintendo confirmed that it will cease sales of specific hardware models rather than just software support. The affected devices include the original Nintendo Switch, the budget-friendly Switch Lite, and the higher-end Switch OLED Model. Sales through third-party retailers will halt simultaneously with sales on the official Nintendo Store. This coordinated shutdown ensures a clean end to the hardware lifecycle across all distribution channels.

Owners of existing Switch consoles can continue to play their games and use accessories without interruption. Nintendo stated that Nintendo Switch Online and other related services will continue for the foreseeable future. The company distinguishes between hardware sales and ongoing software ecosystem support. This separation allows the installed base to remain active even after new unit sales stop.

We have been tracking Nintendo Switch closely and noted earlier coverage on Nintendo Switch 2 Sales Forecast Drops. The end of Switch hardware sales coincides with market shifts toward the next generation of devices. Consumers can still access the vast library of existing titles through their current hardware. The platform transitions from a current-generation product to a legacy system with sustained software support.
