Sales tidbit. I believe current numbers on here have a larger gap than 4.6% in the USA?

Though to match up with the PS5 surpassing PS3 lifetime it might be the PS4 figures are too low in the US as of month 59 rather than PS5 being too high?

We have the PS5 a tiny bit less than 4.6% (it's like 4.5X%) through September. However our PS4 figures matches the old NPD numbers, while we know they tweaked them and had it a hair lower than before. We don't exactly know how much lower so we never tweaked our PS4 figures down. PS4 was at 4.3m through 3 months before and it was lowered to 4.2m according to NPD. Though it could be the case of rounding and a very tiny decrease from 4.25m to 4.24m.

Either way we should be within a percent or 2 of lifetime sales.
