1) Congrats to Sony and Spider-Man. 20m is a lot for a PS4 game. I don't think they outsold GTA5 or Minecraft on the PS4, but they may have outsold the PS4 version of every other third party game.
2) Saying it is "close to Nintendo" levels is overselling it. The OP would be better off if they never compared the game to Nintendo. This thread is supposed to be about celebrating a milestone, but when you compare it to Nintendo, you are asking to get smacked down. Sales for a top tier Nintendo game is 37m. Spider-Man is no where close to this, while Switch has two games on track to eventually surpass it. On the other hand Switch has so many games on track to surpass 20m, that I wouldn't be surprised if their whole top 10 was 20m+ by the end of it's life.
Just because your college team is doing the best they've ever done, that doesn't mean they are as good as a pro team. I'm glad Sony software is doing well, but you'd be better off not comparing them to Nintendo who is still clearly far better.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6
