Hmm…it looks to me that NSW closed the gap by 1mil btwn the launch of NSWLite [September 2019] & February 2020. The pandemic only accelerated the shrink. Wasn’t much movement for the first chunk of 2019, though the Lite model certainly shifted things in favor of NSW. Regardless of the pandemic, NSW would’ve certainly outpaced PS4 during 2020/2021 based off the trajectory.

I agree, but my point was about outpacing it constantly every month, without PS4 beating the Switch at all. This was from the pandemic onwards. in 2019 the Switch progress was constantly up and down towards PS4 since there were months PS4 came on top (again holiday aligned or the table I just did). The trend ended after the last time PS4 came on top - February 2020. From March on (or from the pandemic) Switch constantly outsell it with no return to the old level or PS4 beating it.
