Well that is interesting. The holiday boost is clearly over, Switch dropping a massive 55% this week, yet PS5 sales only dropped 11%.

So was the PS5's lack of a holiday boost due to supply constraints and not demand? Because otherwise this doesn't really make sense to me. The PS5 is almost selling as well now as it was at Christmas.

Either that, or the boost was just minimal because the consoles mostly being shipped out to China instead of landing with japanese customers. Since China doesn't celebrate Christmas, not much of a boost happened during that period. In fact, the PS5 sold less in any week of december than in November, which is highly unusual.
