So the numbers showing Playstation selling the least and ranking third in its strongest terrotiry? Doesnt make sense at all to me. Those numbers will be adjusted for sure.

UK already showed PlayStation doesn't focus on Europe anymore. Ever since the euro/pound fell hard Playstation shifted its focus elsewhere. Mainly US and Asia. Is that a dumb decision obviously, because they give a market away which they dominated, but it's good for short term profit. PlayStation has shipped much less consoles to Europe than in 2021.

Source for Sony doesn’t focus on Europe anymore? It’s their biggest market.

U.K. is relatively small compared to the rest of Europe. It wouldn’t be surprising for Sony to ship more consoles elsewhere besides U.K.

Stock.

Xbox has a massive supply of Series S and offered a $50 price cut on the device making it cheaper than the Switch. 

Switch, still wildly in demand and more readily available than PS5

Sony produced a ton of stock this year.  They purposely held back over 3M just for the holidays. The had over 6M last quarter.

Those numbers for Europe are comical. All the numbers are.
