Agree, it seems that Labo definitely didn't moved Switch hardware, but it will be interesting to pay attention Labo sales in following months especially during Holiday season when could move some units also.

I do not know much about Labo but I have seen the bolded multiple times so I have to ask. Why does Labo get a wait until basically next year before we can judge the sales of it? I mean an entire 8 months before the sales can be judged? Is it something else that is going to happen with it or something? Again I do not not much about it at all.....heck I don't even know what kind of game it is outside of that it is on the Switch to be honest lol. But I was just curious as to why it gets pretty much 8 months before anyone can judge the sales of it for real that is all.

These data are false.

The origin of the mistake is to take the sales data in dollars as if they were in number of units, when the average selling price of the consoles is not the same.

And with the PS4, in the month of April with the bundle of WOW at  400$ and Far Cry 5, the average price has increased with respect to previous months, and obviously, it is above the average sale price of Switch in USA.

Therefore, really PS4 sold less than 1.92 times the switch, and their sales are much lower than the 326k that have been considered valid.

The sales difference has been much lower in the month of April in the USA in number of units.

I was sure that this data had been pretty much verified. Where did you get the info that it was incorrect from? I mean I see your calculations but that is also a guess as well. Also your posting style seems super familiar.....are you an ALT?

What Laincito is saying is not true. If the PS4 sold less than 326k units, then the PS4 would not have outperformed the Wii's April 2009 unit sales performance.
