Which system will sell more in 2026: Switch 2 or PS5?

March seems to be even more Switch 2 dominant than I anticipated. Vgchartz looks to me to have it up about 710k over PS5 for March. Which gives Switch 2 about a 685k lead for the year. A lead which I don’t see any real indication won’t continue to rise essentially every month through October given how the PS5’s baseline sales seems to really be slipping since the price increase (Maybe September could be interesting with Wolverine)

So to me, the only real questions left for this thread are whether Switch 2 receives a price increase this year, what is Nintendo’s second half lineup, and can Switch 2 build a large enough firewall before November to win the year despite GTA6.

The path for PS5 to carry the year looks pretty narrow if Switch 2 holds at $450 and has anything resembling compelling software during the holiday season.

Pretty good assessment.   The only thing to keep in mind is that we are very likely to get a PS5 price cut in November as well. Or a bundle at the current price.   Nintendo is doing what it has to now.  Building up that firewall but I still believe it's not gonna be enough.   In about 30 days the GTA 6 blitz will start so be on the lookout for that.
