Edit: Why do want to compare the PS5 to the PS3? Wouldn't the PS4 be a better fit outside of Japan?

Because I am not sure if PS5 can jump to over 17M this year, and next in line after the 14M year for the PS4 is over 17M, so if PS5 goes way ahead of the PS3 14.6M I will update the comparison to one of the PS4 year where it is over 17M.

Also since many people are not so sure about the level of PS5 sales that's why I am putting it between the two for now. So the next challenge for PS5 is the PS3 peak year, if this becomes too easy for it, we are getting it level up to the stronger years of PS4.

Or maybe to Switch's second year 16M ? ...
