UK Black Friday week:

- Switch # 1 with 42% of the consoles sold, followed by 40% Xbox Series (thanks due to the Series S being £189), PS5 accounted for 18% of the total sales.
- All three consoles had their “biggest weeks” of the year during BF 2022 period

- Nintendo Switch BF 2022 is WAY Down compared to BF 2021.

The vast majority was from the "Series S".
And at that price, I cant blame them (the buyers).
I kinda wish Sony had done the same (I still dont have a PS5, 2 years in).

Like 4k isnt as big a deal as many make it out to be.
A much cheaper smaller PS5, that like the series S, only played games 1080p-1440p, would have been nice.
It shows that Xbox went the right direction, when they made the X/S.

Esp as inflation is creeping up on us, and everything is going up in prices.
People have less disposeable income to go buy gameing systems with, and games.
