But many people think they can determaine what we are allowed to compare and what not. Dertermaining what is called Handheld, PC, Console...

I have the feeling vgchartz logic is:

Playstation is always Nr.1, the best, god, the king. If some system outsells it, its no competition or/ and a so called "different target group🤣😂. Switch is a hybrid, but more a homeconsole (despite the fact more people use it in handheld mode- there even was a statistics in ir.nintendo.com wich confirms it. This is where they also confirmed that 43% of their userbase is 25- 34 years old, smashing the faces of the "kiddy- shouters", but thats a different topic that upsets too many teenies😘)

Ah, and we are not allowed to call the Switch a "handheld" (because it would have been the most powerfull handheld of all time- and still is the most powerful handheld that supports games on cardridges), but a Steam Deck, Rog Faily... are dedicated handhelds, despite the fact you can also hook them up on a TV... ähm sorry PC fanboys "MONITOR" wich lets it play like a console/ PC. Strange times🤣😂

There's also the:

Nin has a blue ocean strategy that allows them to be different and in which they don't have to compete directly with PS or XB, which is a big reason for their more recent success. Yet, also, Switch is definitely a home console that competes directly with PS and XB so when it passes 160M sales it will overtake PS2 for the best selling console ever!

Nobody cares about a "stradegy", everyone cares about SALES! Does vgchartz compare the sales of Xbox, Playstation and Switch? YES OR NO?

Yes? Then all 3 are competing with each other! Only because the PS5 will never catch the Switch's LTD of 155 million minimum does not mean its no competition.

Germany beat Brazil 7:1 in the 2014 world cup. Was Germany playing for a "different audience" that year?🤣😂 Spain (the team nearly everyone expected to win the world Cup in 2014) got fucked up by the Netherlands 5:1, despite all teenie girlies wet fantasies of Spain winning the World Cup. Did anyone say the Netherlands played for a "different group of people"? Did anyone say Carsias, Xabi Alonso... are better known players than Arien Robben, Stefan De Frey or Van Persie (wichs 1:0 Kill as the flying Duch Man went in the history book as one of the most beautifull goals of all time?) Does anyone critisise the comparision between Miroslav Klose the world cup record goal scorer with Lionel Messi only because he is not very well known?Only because Messi won't catch Klose?

Thats what i am refering to. The same it is with gaming. The better gaming system wins. There is no "different audience" just because Playstation is not Nr.1 anymore. Now so many people loudly shout that a rumored not even confirmed Playstation handheld would outsell the Switch for sure despite the fact it will be digital only if they really release one. If this handheld fails to do it again after a 3rd try, is this Playstation handheld also a so called "diferent audience" just because its not Nr.1?🤣😂 We all are gamers so all 3 systems can be compared full stop!!
