Dang! AFAIA PS5 just achieved the third best Nov+Dec EU of all time (3.45mil). Best holiday for a PlayStation system of all time.

Actually there were adjustments for November .. PS5 got cut by more than 200k and it's now 1.85M. Therefore the total becomes 3.23M.

The charts were updated!

I’m curious to see if NS2 05.2026 will make one of the top non-holiday months for JP. IIRC it’s already past 700k this month, no?

Certainly. Switch 2 is at 586k with three weeks into May. It will break 600k with the last week, I am not sure about 700k though, the Switch 2 needs 114k. But to make it to top 10, it needs to beat June of 2007 of the DS, which was 682k. Therefore 96k more needed ..
