The essence of what he's getting at is "I read something in another place, what do you guys think about it?", which he should be known for by now.

Your second post in this thread is awful, by the way. You said B might be true.

this is my post:

"B: That PS5 can sell as many 3rd party games in a quarter as the Switch does in its entire lifespan. "

While that might be true.... ultimately what matters is just the total software sales.
And while PlayStation has higher software sales, its not by insane amounts.

Switch seems to have topped around 230m software sales pr year (it goes up and down)
While PS4+5 sales (sony lump them together), in the same time frame are like 300m+ at its peak (and seem abit more consistant than the Switch's software sales).

However if you factor in how much more first party sales Nintendo has.... and how much cheaper they make their games.
I bet you Nintendo is making more profit (if not revenue) on software sales, than Sony currently.


I basically wrote that "while it might be true", as a I can't bother arguing that part.
And the rest of it is.... the software sales amounts aren't that big between them.
Over last 4 years, switch had between 160m-230m sales pr year in software. While on PS4+PS5, they are much the same, just abit higher reaching upwards of 300m+ instead. 

This is not a "in 1 quarter does PS sell more than nintendo does lifetime" posting by me.
So I'm actually saying the opposite.

Your take away is "You said B might be true." ?

When something is blatant bullshit, you don't begin your response with "this might be true." But let's just put that down as English not being your first language.



Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
