It's clearly shifting to the S model however.

Early on the Series X was dominating, with the S only getting some scraps. Last year the Series X outsold the Series S. This year however, the Series S is leading and does so in an increasing amount of weeks. The older the system becomes it seems, the more it seems to shift to the series S. Which is ironic considering it's the weaker model, normally the shift goes towards the more powerful one.

So... are we going to assume that exclusive games (and price) mean so little that all it takes to convince someone to pick one console over the other is its size?

Have you ever consider the possibility that Microsoft is just producing more units from that model?

What games are exclusive to the Series X that are not on the Series S?

@bolded:Yes, I do. And here's the thing: A company like Microsoft wants to make money, so they don't produce things if there's no demand for it. In other words, while Microsoft has probably increased production of the Series S, it's also just as probably due to higher demand of that model in some regions - including Japan apparently.
