UK April update incoming.
There was a lack of stock for Xbox Series and PS5 in April. As a result, Switch was the No.1 console in the UK. Sales are down vs last year (unsurprisingly) but it's a consistent high performance right now

Switch isn't a record breaking platform in the UK. Not even close. But its current sales trends puts it on par with Xbox 360, which over time went on to do 9m units in the UK. A figure only beaten by Nintendo DS and PS2

-Stock issues for PS5/XBS so NSW #1
-NSW down from Apr 2020, but that contained ACNH week 2/3, so expected
-Chris seems to be implying that NSW trajectory now looks on pace for #4 or #3 all time in the UK
Presumably he expects the NSW to exceed the PS4? Or it is at least outperforming it launch-aligned since it lagged considerably behind in the first 3 years (we know NSW did ~1,500,000 in 2020)
