Data doesn't need to be correct, fake news and reporting stuff without source also has made it to VGchartz

Sony reported at the end of december 3.94 shipments for Japan including Asia.

That's including the rest of Asia though. The Switch number here are just Japan.

Also, those PS2 numbers are until 31st of December, while the Switch numbers are from Media Create which is up to the week ending 24th of December.

What's more the PS2 numbers are units shipped, while the Switch numbers are units sold.

All of that can account for the difference.

What Rest of Asia?  it wasn't released in China/taiwan/south Korea/Singapore/thailand/malaysia etc before december 2001/February 2002.

One week difference isn't that much, 0.94 million in sales is tho;

Sony was in a worse situation than Nintendo because they had to apologize for the extreme PS2 shortages leading to push production till it broke, that eventually lead to a extremely low shipment.  4.75 ish after 1 year.
