A bit of cool information is that the PS5 has outsold lifetime sales of the PS3 in the US. 

This is very interesting, I'm looking forward to Sony's financial report, it's likely that the PS5 will surpass the PS3 in global sales later this year.

Shipment wise I would be surprised if it doesn't surpass PS3. Sales wise the PS5 might not surpass PS3 until early next year depending on the holiday boost. I'd say the case is similar with the Switch outselling the DS worldwide.
