Top 10 Switch on software, but hardware not so much.

Nice pull for Series S that keeps the XBS numbers high... that can't be said for PS5.

Xbox sold more then Playstation!?

Damn, PS5 became scarce after Golden Week.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

I'm surprised xbox series s is doing so well on Japan. Digital is really growing in Japan

First time in living memory, but really i think it's the first time outside of a launch week since the XB360 era when it was getting a few exclusive JRPG's.

This is just what's being shipped there. Series S is outselling X in many places because Series X is impacted more heavily by the shortages. If they actually prefered digital now all games would sell over 50% digitally, which isn't happening.
