Xbox having its worst September ever really boggles my mind. Im expecting GTA 6 to break the fall next month and November.

For PS5..  so back a few months ago during one of Sonys conference calls, it was stated that They had not seen a sales effect as a result of all the negative social media content.  It should be noted that online is not real life.  

Hardware - PlayStation 5 hardware dollar sales grew 43% in September when compared to a year ago. Spending fell year-on-year for both Xbox Series (-2%) and Nintendo Switch 2 (-12%).

Yeah it is up 43% for PS5  (in terms of dollars earned). 


for unit sales this is it:

"....PlayStation 5 unit sales increased by 22% year-on-year, with Switch 2 unit sales falling 14% and Xbox Series dropping 27%."  - Mat Piscatella

From OP:

VGChartz US estimates for September 2025:

  1. NS2 - 277K
  2. PS5 - 190K
  3. XS - 84K


Add in 22%, -14% and -27% you end up at (for sept. 2026 in the US):

  1. NS2 - 238K
  2. PS5 - 232K
  3. XS - 61K


And that should be around the results right?


(edited because I messed up, looking at VGC global numbers instead of US ones, and applied the %'s to that :P first)


Edit nr 2:

from OP:

RESULTS

Units: PS5 > NS2 > XS > NS1
Revenue: PS5 > NS2 > XS > NS1

Our 2025 numbers might be slightly off then.
Because if you use the numbers in %'s from Piscatella, the NS2 should still be out on top (by a tiny bit, 238k vs 232k).
If we know that unit wise PS5 is supposed to beat the NS2... right?

I'm bad at this stuff... I should just stop it here. 
Let others better at this stuff work out final numbers.
