With Nintendo officially announcing the Switch 2 what sales comparison charts do you want to see with it?

My initial thoughts:

• Switch 2 vs Switch - Worldwide and Japan
• Switch 2 vs PS5 - Worldwide
• Switch 2 vs Xbox Series X|S - Worldwide (Yes, I realize the Switch 2 should easily win this one. But once it does, I can switch this to Xbox One then Xbox 360. Unless I should just compare it to the Xbox 360 right out of the gate and include lines for the Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One?)

Switch 2 vs DS worldwide and Europe are a couple since it'll be interesting to see how its sales curve compares to both that and the Switch with how different they are and Europe is the one major region where the Switch will remain significantly behind the DS so a big question is if it'll be able to surpass that and not only reach the 50's there but perhaps even have a shot at reaching the PS2. That's extremely unlikely but it's fun to think about.
