Shouldn't be compared with two different consoles. I don't care what Microsoft says, Xbox X is a totally new console that plays Xbox One games.

I see your point, but if all games are gonna work on both then they are the same platform. They're running the same content with different graphical settings, like a PC.

If X1X becomes gets its own games down the road, kinda like New 3DS has, then it starts to become its own platform.

There are alot of reasons for not putting Switch up against Xbox One. For starters, they're seperate genereations. Do we compare PS1 and Dreamcast sales? No, we compare PS1 and N64 sales and we do that for a reason. The second and even more legit reason why we shouldn't include Xbox One sales is because it launched in 2013. Switch launched almost four years later lol. How in the hell can anyone think that's a fair fight and not totally ridiculous? That's almost an entirely new generational gap time-wise. 

 

Since Xbox X releases within the same calendar year, it should be the only console used when comparing sales with Switch.
