Not bad numbers for PS5 this week. I was expecting around 40,000 so I think 50,000+ is a good result. Though I still think that by the end of March, console sales will be back to what they were pre-Wilds, but we'll see.

For the PS5 that's expected but for the Switch what do you think is gonna cause this recent sales trend to stop and even reverse somewhat?

The recent sales trend is a moderate YoY decline.  It's what the Switch has been doing for the past several years.  In fact it's % drop is even milder this year that it has been in previous years.  This idea that the Switch will hit a sales cliff this year doesn't come from the data at all.

Year	YTD (in thousands)	% drop
2021	1316
2022	1090	-17.2%
2023	716	-34.3%
2024	560	-21.8%
2025	511	-8.8%
