This is unfair and difficult to compare. Spring is a much more dead part of the year than the holidays, so advantage HD twins in that regard. Also, we know Nintendo had supply shortages for a looooong time after launch, so unless Xbox/PS5 have similar constraints that is another reason this is difficult to compare.

If all three devices releases in the same month and all had 5 million units on shelves during that time, then we could compare sales fairly. But what if Nintendo didn't have supply constraints? Would they have sold 4, 5, 6, etc. million then? Who knows?
