Playstation 4 software sales exceeded 400 million units in January 2017. That's a bit more than 3 years after launch. Almost the same amount of time it took the Switch to do so. Obviously, yearly software sales will increase over the course of a console's lifespan as the install base grows.

The Switch is doing great on Software sales which is sometimes overlooked and is pretty much neck and neck with the PS4.

PS4 hit 401m software sales after 3 year 2 months on the market, Switch is at 406m after 3 years 3 months.

The next number of software sales we know about for the PS4 is 645m after 4 years 2 months on the market which we can compare to the Switch after FYQ1 2022 (end of June 2021) when the Switch has been on the market for 4 years 3 months and I don't think there will be much in it with a slight lead going to the PS4 still but even with a somewhat modest 30% YoY software increase it would total to 218M for FY21 bringing the Switch up to 624m.
