What about 3DS in 2011-2013 or Wii 2009 or DS 2008? All in that 1.5-2.5 million range.

 A ~2 million shipped vs sold difference isnt as uncommon as you are pretending.

For Wii in 2009 i see 65'0M sold and 67'45M so around another 2'5M difference. DS in 2006-2009 was a phomenon like no other, so comparing Swith to DS on those years is unfair. That thing sold like anything seen before those years. As for 3DS...only 2011 had more than 8M shipped in that quarter (and i have to rememeber you, that Switch did shipped not only more than 8, but more than 9M) and was not the first holiday after the price cut for 3DS so a lot of people waited to buy the handheld after that?

So PS4 is an outlier, DS was a phenom and 3DS had a price cut........sounds like excuses.
