A lot of people believed in that cliff.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.

Initially I voted mid 2022 its now going to happen late 2021 around six to nine months early.
Voted mid 2022. Still, it could be worse. I could've voted "never" like every 6th person who voted in this poll

Welp, I overestimated it a bit or more like, I underestimated the shortages and didn't expect the OLED.
Wow its crazy looking back when I voted switch will outsell the wii in Holiday 2022, the switch exceeded my expectations by doing it a year earlier than expected.
Looking like it's going to by dead on new years week what's even more crazy is that Switch is going to finish the FY as the fifth top selling platform of all time having passed 6 platforms on route in 12 months and instead of passing the Wii in mid to late 2022 like some of us thought it'll be passing both the PS4 and GB to become the third best selling platform of all time.
Switch might pass Wii before Christmas. Will probably pass PS1 last week of the year.
Then Switch will be hunting GB and PS4 and probably them down around black friday next year or maybe at beginning of next December.
The real question of course is if Switch can span that massive gap between GB/PS4 all the way to DS/PS2. Really just depends on when Nintendo replaces the Switch. If successor comes out Spring '24 it ain't happening. Holiday '24 it's got a decent shot. Spring '25 or later and I'd say it's almost guaranteed Switch will end up the top selling system ever.
Is this still too early to call? At this point I can't tell if it's going to happen holiday 2021 or early 2022. I suppose holiday 2021 is more likely.
