Yeah like almost everyone I overestimated the Xbox Series for this year towards the start. It keeps consistently underperforming expectations but that probably won't happen any more since people have understandably gotten really down on it lately. It looks like I'll have underestimated the PS5 and Switch, more so the latter due to expecting the successor to have released by now but I'll see just how off it'll end up being after the December numbers.

I wouldn't call it underestimation for the Switch, since pretty much everyone expected successor releasing by end of the year, me included. It is more like wrong estimation about the situation itself or Nintendo's real intentions as we can't know that. Underestimation for PS5 not so much, maybe one about the PS5 Pro, I also wasn't expecting so much of a boost, with a 700$ console.

That's fair since it would've definitely been closer to 10m if it had released a couple months ago and for the PS5 it looks like it'll likely do 19m with some chance of it barely reaching 20m for the year so I might end up somewhat close with that one.
