You can equally apply that to any group here.  Further, it gets uglier when one group resorts to an unrelated topic in an attempt to diminish information within the primary topic.

Primary Topic: Hardware sales for this week.
Group 1: Console A wins this week.
Group 2: Yeah, but Console B is best selling for the year (different topic meant to diminish statistical fact of primary topic) and lifetime (different topic meant to diminish statistical fact of primary topic).

If you want to talk and celebrate Console B's yearly or lifetime performance, go make a thread about it instead of making subtle instigations.

You don't think how old a console is has any effect on it's week by week sales? I'd say it's relevant context that does make PS4 sales look more impressive than the raw numbers alone. Yearly and lifetime sales are determined by weekly sales, so those are fair talking points as well. In order for Switch to overtake PS4 it's gonna need to lead each week by a greater margin than it is currently.

No console starts off selling great and it goes downhill from there. PS4 is something past the peak, Switch is before the peak.
