33.4% drop YoY is bigger than I expected for Switch, but a 38% drop YoY for Xbox in the Americas is devastating at this stage in it's life. It should still be building up towards a peak year now, not doing this.

March was a great month for Xbox in the Americas last year. But I agree that is a HUGE drop and not a great look. Is Microsoft trying to make Xbox look even worse with these sales to get its Activision Blizzard deal passed? I never expected Xbox Series X|S to come that close to PS5 worldwide, but this is sad. Another possibility is Microsoft is getting ready to release a redesigned Series X, at least internally to bring the price to manufacture it down.
