I am quite happy that Sakuna is doing better on the Switch than the PS4. PS4 shouldn't be selling much software anymore, it is a dead system abandoned by Sony.

That said, Switch has double the amount of HW than the PS4. Will be a bit until Sakuna on Switch outsells the PS4 version by double.

Software sales scale a bit with install base, but never linear. A highly successful system will always have lower attach rates for single pieces of software than a less successful system with the same software. Just look at Mario Kart 8. It sold 8.5M on less than 14M WiiUs (>50% attach rate), while it 'only' sells 30M copies to 78M Switch owners (less than 50%).

Yep but the Switch's attach ratio for most software has just plain been better than the PS4's for the most part. Compare the #1 games for each and go down the line, #2, #3, #4 and etc.
