Very interesting how dying systems see a big drop in weekly sales, once 1st january hits ...
How XBOX ONE was doing around 10-12K every week for the second part of last year, and 1st january came and it is now doing 2k ?
How PS4 was doing 20-30K for the second part of the year every week, and 1st january came and it is doing 15K ?
Even going back to 2019 and 2020 I remember noticeable drop in PS4 weekly sales and also PS3 and 360 in their late years too.
It is like that the 1st and 2nd weeks of every year show how the sales will continue for the system ...

I know the drops in sales are normal for outgoing systems, but it is interesting how the drops are happening once 1st january hits .. every time, every year for every system

I guess some factors. Around the holidays you have a lot of advertisement for new systems and new games, and that makes the older systems look old. The other might be that the last holdouts catch a sale around the holidays.
