Nobody is saying that, just that looking at chart performance of games on a 2.6m vs ~37m and making conclusions about legs is quite illogical.

That is the modus operandi at VGC. Always resort to userbase and install base to reflect an analysis of sales of one game against other.

Sure sometimes people will use install base as an excuse when its not really a factor but in this case it 100% needs to be considered.

Hes comparing NPD legs of Wii to SW but not factoring in that Wii was released at the same time as PS3 and only 1 year after 360 while SW was released ~3.5 years after PS4/XBO.

This is a huge factor resulting in SW having 1/14 the install base of PS4+XBO while Wii was closer to 1/2 of PS3+360 after 8 months on the market.

That is undeniably a huge difference that needs to be factored in when comparing the two.
