He was talking about tie-in ratios for the quarter, not overall.

Of course PS4 will have a higher tie-in overall, it's been on the market for three or four times as long.

And Switch being less time and thus the new entrants being more representative to the overall number of owners will make the sales of SW skew to Switch on that quarter because usually someone buying the console will also buy more SW (about 4 if I'm not wrong).

So one way or another you'll be skewing the number in favor of the platform that have more time in market or less (if both are being healthy). See why the need to counter?

The PS4 also sold more hardware units this quarter so by your own logic shouldn't it have a higher software tie-in ratio than the Switch?

I'm not skewing the numbers in any fashion. I'm just referring to what happened this quarter.
