It's obvious that it peaked already. I don't remember which year it was, probably 2021 when they almost broke 10m mark, but with current trajectory it doesn't seem likely that this year they will move more than 5-6m consoles. And last year it was 7.5m if I remember correctly, big drop already. They really need a miracle to recover from this and beat their best year.

^ yep.   (think it was 7.2m?)

If Xbox has a 3rd year in a row, with 30%+ yoy drops in hardware, it will be around 5m this year (maybe below).

PS5 just did 8,2m+ in its last quarter (they lowered their forecasts from 25m down to 21m+, for the year though).
Still this paints a picture. You could realistically see PS5 selling 4 to 1, what the Xbox does this year.

Like 5m for xbox, and 20m for PS5.

Indeed, 5M this year is very possible.

I don't see Playstation doing 20M. It Will be close, perhaps 19M? At worst 18M.
