First, those numbers are estimated sales, not actual data from the companies.  Second, they are outdated as it hasn't been updated in over a year...

@DonFerrari 

Sure for both, and no company have reported over 2M games sold on Switch have they? Will ask again can you show source for 10 3rd party games that sold over 2M on Switch?

Whoops, I thought you posted that link.

But do you realize Vgchartz stopped tracking software at the end of 2018?

Yep it have been said. But those are the only numbers we had and within 1 or 2 years PS4/X1 had more than 10 2M+ 3rd party sellers right?

I'll say it again, pubs don't hate money nor hate Nintendo. The reason they don't put the big guns on Switch (or do an exclusive for it that is big) is because their forecasts show that there isn't the return they expect to receive on other platforms. There really isn't another answer, unless we go conspiracy theories or pubs hate Nintendo money.

What's that obsesion with the 2m number? What's the goalpost after that? The switch has received mostly old ports as AAA 3rd party support, with only a handful of day and date releases. And even the late releases mostly have no trouble beating the xbox one while some even surpass the ps4 or give it a run for it's money. Meanwhile, mid and small games on switch tend to vastly outsel the other versions. If a game releases fairly, it sells.
