Good to know Switch has almost surpassed 3DS in terms of physical games for sale. 

PS2 only had 3800 retail games. In a span of 6-8 years. Switch on the other hand has 2400 games that are mainly Digital Indies. Digital distribution wasn't a thing on PS2. Nothing will ever rival PS2's library. 

That's like saying switch succes sales numbers in region x doesn't count because it is a hybrid.  Now it gets a lot of games and we shouldn't count them =p?  Digital distribution wasn't a thing on PS2 because Sony didn't care about it while consoles like xbox had it.  Sure switch may have many small games like sega ages but PS2 had also +100 collections of sega ages/namco etc collections

Agreed.

There were plenty of budget PS2 retail releases that were as lousy as the worst of the Switch's digital indie releases, and I distinctly remember seeing god-awful-looking games for $0.25 in the bargain bin. Digital wasn't an enormously viable option in the sixth gen. That didn't mean we didn't get games that should've been digital-only releases. That just means that a lot of them got shitty retail releases instead.
