What does this mean for the financial year for Sony and Nintendo, are they on track for 25M and 15M respectively as forecasted? Microsoft is a bit different with their FY being tracked to June and with no forecast.

It would be very hard for the Switch to meet these Ampere's estimates, it would need to be just 5% down YoY in December but it's currently 20%-40% down depending on the market.

PS5 seems more reasonable but still on target for a miss of the 25M forecast unless it's around 50% up YoY in Q4.

Hmmm. You're right looking at the numbers again Ampere do have it a bit high compared to VGChartz. I am expecting December to be better for November than December in terms of decline but I'm only expecting around 3.2m, which would bring 2023 Switch sales up to 15.7m using VGChartz numbers. Still even with that sell-through should stay above 15m for this fiscal year. Perhaps Nintendo ship less than they sell-through this late in the consoles life, I do not know.

Regardless I think Nintendo should be very close to their 15m shipped target whether that is above or below.
