Out of everyone here that's read it, I'm pretty sure you're the only one that still believes it makes any sense. You're welcome to explain it of course, as both my replies were actual questions you still haven't bothered to answer.

Since no one seems to be getting this, I'll say what I understood: you're stating that Switch in 2021 alone has a chance to outsell the Xbox Series lifetime, is that correct? If so, I disagree, but that's okay.

If so, it's even more incorrect as Xbox Series is currently outpacing Xbox One launch-aligned and I don't think Switch is going to sell 50m+ units this year alone.

Dint the x1 also started outpacing the 360? 

No. By this point - February/March 2014 - it was already behind the 360 since sales had dropped to 60-65k per week while Series is selling ~110k per week, faster than the 360 and all past Xbox consoles. 

At this point in their lifetime, these were the average weekly sales of those consoles:

Series: ~110k

360: ~75-80k

One: ~60-65k

In any case, I wouldn't even bother replying to a certain user in this thread, he also thinks Series will sell 6 million this year when their weekly sales are a 60-70% higher than those of the One in 2014 while still being supply constrained and sold out; and even then, the Xbox One sold 7.2 million in 2014. The discussion around Series should be whether it can surpass 10 million consoles sold this year or not.

Not to mention he made stuff up about Xbox financials and when I asked him for a source he lead me to a source that was corrected by its own authors and said 2.1 billion profit in 2014 . And he still won't reply to me.
