Corrected and added the context you failed to mention or acknowledge.

Given the context, it looks like you really don't. After all, the Switch was selling about 40-50k more each week until the announcement of Switch lite and upgraded base model already, but everybody who is saying that the PS4 is dominating is treating the Switch like those sub 200k are normal sales for the console while they really aren't. And even then, it still stays on top.

In other words, the PS4 couldn't even beat a supply-constrained console which is getting two replacements about 1 and two months from that date. That's not domination, that's clearly showing it's age and that it's way past it's zenith.

On the other hand, for a six year old console, it's truly doing great - it just can't keep up with the Switch anymore under normal conditions.

Edit: Whoops, didn't see the thread warning, sorry!

There was no supply constraint. Ps4 even outselling the switch this year before the two successors announcement. Total domination for a console in its 6th year. A 6 year old nintendo system had never and will never sell as well as the ps4 in its 6th year

Going by the very chart supplied on this page, the DS sold over 20m in 2010...
