| NexusFX said: The Switch Sold over 150.86 Million Units as of December 31, 2024 as officially announced by Nintendo, and this site still hasn't updated those numbers. Is there a glitch here, oversight, or some under the rug tribalism? When Sony announced 160 Million for PS2 it was updated Immediately, I'm just saying based off of the numbers since December, the Switch is close to number 2 all time. |
The numbers on the front page are sell-through (sold to customer). The numbers that companies report are shipped (sold to retailer).
The sell-through will usually always be roughly 1-3m below the shipped figure, until the console stops shipping and the remaining stock on shelves is sold, then sell-through catches up to shipped.
This is why this site has PS5 at around 72m for end of 2024 when Sony announced 75m. It's not a glitch, oversight or tribalism.
Basically as of December 31st 2024 Nintendo have shipped out 150.86m from their factories to companies like Gamestop, Target etc. But customers have not purchased 150.86m by that same date, that would be impossible.
