I never said that Switch would beat the PS2, let alone me wanting it to beat the PS2! I only said, that if sales continue like that, it will get more likley over time. I just said i do not exclude this possibility anymore! And only because the Switch is a handheld does not mean i cannot compare it to the PS2! Both are gaming systems, one is mobile the oder one stationary. Both play physical games, so yes they can be compared! If the Switch sells more than the PS2, then yes, the Switch will be Nr.1, if it fails to do so, then it lost this battle and will be Nr.2! As easy as that! Both systems can be compared directly. But what i am starting to think is, that Switch somehow starts getting dangerously close to PS2 LTD software sales (1,55 billion)...

The funniest thing is that some people think Japanese would chose Playstation over Switch easily as soon as Sony release a handheld, when Nintendo handhelds always outsold Sony handhelds in Japan and elsewhere. I don't think many Japanese would buy the handheld that plays God of War over the handheld that plays Pokemon. Sony franchises are only catered to western audiences, they don't make Japanese style games like Nintendo.

Pretty much, Vita even sold less than the PS4. Switch isn't smashing it in Japan just because it's portable, but because it has games like Animal Crossing, Splatoon, etc, which Sony has no answer to.

If Switch was not portable i'd give it 30- 50 million max, maybe it would have even bound Nintendos Slipknot. The portable aspect is its main sales driver. More people use it in handheld mode according to Nintendo themselfes (ir.nintendo.com check up in the FY reports presentation papers), japan is a handheld loving country to this day and Switch obviously sold closer to handheld levels than to home console levels, heck maybe its even becoming the Nr.1 selling system of all time even ww. Withhout the Handheld itself wich the Switch is you cannot play anyway, the dock alone is nothing more than an HDMI adapter. Without the dock- wich is a hidden HDMI port, nothing more- you could play as a  HANDHELD. Why people keep insisting that Switch is more a homeconsole than a handheld? Every tablet/ smartphone would be a "homeconsole" because i can also play games witch them and hook them up to a TV. Also Vita and PSP can be hooked up to a TV. Are they "home consoles"? I don't think so...

What the hell is happening with PS5 this january in Japan?
Is there some announced cut in price?

Ringfit up 23% this week, it just keeps on selling. I always wondered why Nintendo did not release paid DLC (and add to NSO expansion pack) for this title. Seemed easy money to me.

What do you mean? PS5 baseline is 10k now ever since the price increase, it sold 12k this week, so it's in line with its weekly baseline. Not sure where the confusion comes from to ask "what the hell is happening" when it is right in line with baseline sales.
