Forums - Sales Discussion - Historical Consoles Showdown

XtremeBG on 23 April 2024

This is the Historical Console Showdown comparison thread.

This new sales thread will be about Historical Lifetime sales of already dead consoles ending very close with each other and will only be updated once ongoing console dies and in that case there may be some new comparisons depending on the performance of that given console, or in the rare cases of adjustments of old consoles presented here or when I decide to add new comparison. The model will be just like the Lifetime Console Showdown thread however for some of them where monthly data is not available the comparison will be quarterly (such as PS2) or even by Fiscal Years ( such as Gameboy) and it will be for the entire lifecycle of the given systems.

The battles are as follows:

  • Nintendo Switch vs Nintendo DS (33M - JAPAN)
  • PlayStation 2 vs Nintendo DS (157M & 154M) (Shipments)
  • PlayStation 1 vs Nintendo Wii (102.5M & 101.6M) (Shipments)
  • PlayStation 3 & Xbox 360 vs PlayStation 4 & Xbox One (173.2M vs 175.2M)
  • PlayStation 3 vs Xbox 360 (87.4M & 85.7M)
  • PlayStation Portable vs Nintendo 3DS vs GBA (82.5M & 76M & 81.5M)
  • PlayStation Vita vs Nintendo Wii U (15.8M & 13.6M)

More information on the comparisons is in the post after that one.

So, the breakdown and additional information for every comparison is the following:

  • Nintendo Switch vs Nintendo DS (33M - JAPAN)

Interesting to point out here is that at one point the DS is ahead by a whopping 10.3M with Switch passing it lifetime in May 2024, while the finish result has yet to be seen.

  • PlayStation 2 vs Nintendo DS (157M & 154M) (Shipments)

First of all, here, I will note that the chart is my old one which is PS2 vs DS, it is based on sales and shipments numbers combined (slightly corrected or rounded for the chart line where info wasn't presented because it is for every 4 months, not every 3 months like the official data of shipments is here, therefore it is accurate as possible, but of course can't be 100% on point for every period, because we don't have the exact data on sales for the PS2 by month or for every 4 months). And because the data in the table is shipments only (and is by 3 months quarters and the chart is divided by every 4 months) there may be some slight differences between it and the chart if you look at exact line and date. Also on the table comparison Q1 is calendar, not fiscal. So by fiscal it would be Q4.

  • PlayStation 1 vs Nintendo Wii (102.5M & 101.6M) (Shipments)

On that one, both are shipment numbers by calendar quarters, with the Wii reaching almost 40M lead at one point, and finishing below PS1 in the end.

    • PlayStation 3 vs Xbox 360 (87.4M & 85.7M) (Sales)

    Interesting to point here is that PS3 at one point is almost 11M ahead, just to drop the lead to 1.6M in the end.

    • PlayStation Portable vs Nintendo 3DS vs GBA (82.5M & 76M & 81.5M)

    Interesting to point here is that 3DS reached 7M lead at one point, just to finish behind by the same amount by the end. Another thing is how much better selling was the GBA in the beginning and small difference it makes in the end from DS and especially the PSP and even falls behind it by just a hair.

    X360 was already at 84 million in June 2014, so this graph might need some tweaking

    The charts are based on the data here - VGChartz. On the chart the green line for the xbox 360 is at 84M at that time (the period ending in 1st september). If you talk about the numbers, then maybe you don't agree with the VGChartz data estimates. My threads are strictly made from that data. Also as far as I understand from the article, it's about shipped units, not sold. The data from VGChartz (and the same data I use) is for sold units.

    New comparison and chart for it was added!

    • PlayStation 3 & Xbox 360 vs PlayStation 4 & Xbox One (173.2M vs 175.2M)

    Also if you have new suggestions for close ones that haven't been done before write it as a post, or even regional ones, why not ?

    Poll was added. You can vote now.
