Switch vs Xbox One in the US Sales Comparison - Switch Continues to Close the Gap in September 2020

This monthly series compares the lifetime US sales of the Nintendo Switch and Xbox One.

Switch Vs. Xbox One US:

Gap change in latest month: 579,415 - Switch

Gap change over last 12 months: 5,820,599 - Switch

Total Lead: 6,711,614 - Xbox One

Switch Total Sales: 22,099,339

Xbox One Total Sales: 28,810,953

September 2020 is the 43rd month that the Nintendo Switch has been available for in the US. During the latest month, the gap shrunk in favor of the Switch by 579,415 units when compared to the Xbox One. In the last 12 months, the Switch has caught up to the lifetime sales of the Xbox One in the US by 5.82 million units. The Switch is currently 6.71 million units behind the Xbox One in the US.

The Xbox One launched in November 2013, while the Nintendo Switch launched worldwide in March 2017. The Switch has sold 22.10 million units, while the Xbox One has sold 28.81 million units.

If you were to align the launches of the two consoles in the US the Switch would be ahead by 5.33 million units, as the Xbox One had sold 16.77 million units through 43 months.

The holidays should be enough to close the gap, with Switch on fire and Xbone replaced. Still interesting to watch though; Xbone's last stand against the Switch.
