Switch weekly sales actually fall below 40k, and YTD is behind last year's YTD. Switch is doing really well, and it's about to hit its 8 year anniversary. However, back near the holidays sales were crazy on fire, and the holiday fire has finally worn off.



Switch dropped below 40k weekly and behind last YTD while the PS5 now sells weekly similar to the Wii U at it's height.



With the first sub 40k week in over half a year the impact of the Switch 2 continues and it fell behind last year in February or March as I expected. It'll still sell really well for at least the next several weeks though with it potentially getting a bit of a boost next week and the impact probably not increasing more till some time after the big April Direct.

And ouch on the PS5 declining the week before Wilds releases and despite having a new release at number 1. The PS4 increased the week before Worlds launched so that's not a good sign. It got a boost of 90k the week that released so the same as that would have the PS5 reach 100k but considering the very different circumstances to then it's safe to say the boost won't be that big but 50-70k seems doable. Also I wonder if this could be the last time the PS4 has a game chart in the top 2. That happening despite it being 11 years old is kinda wild.

You would expect that considering that bundles are releasing this week with the game and from now until March 13th, the PS5 will have a 7k yen reduction for each model, except the Pro.

That would help explain it but what did they do for Worlds?



Switch will be 40k again after Pokemon day



Switch Lite, one of our hopes for reaching 160m, continues to rise compared to last year.
