I said this about the PS5, as well but... it's kind of pointless comparing sales across generations. Maybe if it was the one immediately preceding the current one, you might be able to glean something from it, but any further back from that and it becomes rather pointless due to the industry's growth.
The only way to do a fair comparison would be to somehow figure out a formula to convert the numbers like how the movie industry adjusted for inflation (for instance, Gone With the Wind still hasn't been outsold). We would need a similar one to make these console comparisons worth more than a sheer novelty, which is what they currently are.
