Curious that this is the first ad I've seen end with a PS4 product shot for a while. I wonder if could elude to more PS4 stock coming in future

PS5 will soon overtake the Switch, both the Sony and MS systems are already outselling it and this will only drive the momentum down further. In fact when supply catches up, the Switch will be competing with the XBOX Series X/S.

Is this a serious post? With the OLED system launching next month?

And define soon. Cause I dont see PS5 overtaking Switch in WW sales in 2022. I do see it happening in 2023 though.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

So Switch's 2020 was what, the second or third highest selling year for any system ever? And 2021 is only down 5.5% from that, with a new model and a stacked holiday still to come.

Is that the Switch cliff everyone’s talking about? PS5 is about to fly right into it…



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Third, behind two DS years. Topped the previous third, the Wii peak year by several million. 2021 will do that too.

Hey @zorg1000. Since you decided to be petty (link) because you couldn't handle the Switch not being #1 in a region for a week, aside from the week after you posted that, its been PS5 #1 in EU each week up to today.
