Thank you!. I was expecting something like this from somewhere, good work!

This puts into perspective again, that despite the shortcomings of Xbox One sales and their games and the amazing raw number of hardware and software sales from Nintendo, both are very close in the only aspect that these companies really care....earnings and profits.

I would say that Microsoft, is doing better than the other two considering how much a failure their hardware and their software had been this last gen....

Looks like you don't realize what you are looking at, but you aren't the only one in this thread. The above only shows revenue numbers, but doesn't touch on profits at all.

Because I can't be bothered to go through a bunch of financial reports to align for the calendar year 2019 that is displayed above, I'll only post the operating profit forecasts of both Sony and Nintendo for the fiscal year ending March 2020. Microsoft does not provide numbers for profit comparisons, but they can be safely assumed to be a distant third anyway.

Sony: 235 billion yen
Nintendo: 300 billion yen

I was just about to post this, they have ~2x the revenue but ~20% less profit.
