Splatoon 2 has sold nearly as much as God of War PS4 and Horizon Zero Dawn individually

Nintendo 1st party titles always do insanely well. that's incorrect
I'd say part of it, is Playstation caters to a more diverse group, with tastes that go all over the place. not really true.
So their games sales in titles usually dont match up to how well, some of these nintendo IP do.

These tates that go everywhere, lead people to playing more things (3rd party)....
so their own 1st party dont enjoy as high attachrates as nintendo titles do on their platform.

Some Sony titles have done well though:
God of War ~12m
Uncharted 4 ~16m
HZD ~10m
GTsports ~8m
Spiderman ~14m
Last of Us ~19m (cross gen)

If compaired, Mario Kart 8 (cross gen) will soon overtake Last of Us. mk8 is well over 20 million counting the both versions.
Mario Odessey will soon overtake Uncharted 4.
Smash and Spiderman are neck and neck.
Pokémon let's go will soon overtake HZD I don't think Pokemon let's go Will overtake HZD. Shipments are very low this year.

Nintendo titles do really well, and have really high attachrates amoung their userbase on their platforms.
Then you have to remember its basically a 40m vs 100m compairison.
Makes the nintendo 1st party look even more insane.
