Well, based on the $244M revenue figure for hardware, we can estimate that, depending on the actual split between their SKUs, the Switch, PS5, and Series X|S likely sold somewhere between 700-800k units combined, assuming a 4-5% market share for the PS4 & XBO.

Hopefully we'll get some solid numbers for this year leaked at some point, because we've yet to get anything solid.
