PS5 will likely sell 3-4 times more than Switch 2 in Europe during November. It will be interesting to see if PS5 is so strong in Europe this year that it comfortably outsells Switch 2 in December as well, looks like it based on that huge November advantage.

Switch 1 peak November in Europe was 1.03m, PS5 peak November in Europe was 1.95m last year. PS5 tripling Switch 2 this month in Europe is possible, as Switch 1 averaged around 650k for Nov EU sales, but not guaranteed. Think 4x would be very unlikely though. Switch 2 has already been seeing some pretty significant discounts and deals though so for a launch year November it might do a lot better than expected.

Nintendo is heavily weighted towards December though compared to PS. Switch 1 peaked at 1.80m for EU December, whereas PS5's best EU December is 1.35m. Nintendo always sells much more in December than November and PS the opposite.

Switch 2 winning December is certainly possible. Family's getting Switch's for Christmas is massive for Nintendo.

Given that Japan as of yet usually have stronger Switch 2 months than Europe, if Japan is around 500-550k sales for November, Europe could maybe match that for November. 1M could happen in Japan for December, which would based on the trend of Japan being a bigger market for Switch 2 as of yet put Europe at 800-900k Switch 2 sales for December.

Good week for PS5 and Switch 2.

PS5 is down about 9% compared to our estimates for Black Friday 2024. Switch 1 and Xbox Series are down ~80%+ year-on-year compared to our estimates. There was also no boost for Xbox Series despite it being Black Friday week. The lack of any discounts and the price increase this year have killed Xbox sales in at least mainland Europe.

I'm expecting PS5 to be +/-10% of last year for Europe for the month of November.

PS5 is down during the black friday week but up significantly the week prior compared to 2024.

PS5 sales-

18th to 24th Nov 2024- 29000 units

25th nov to dec 1st 2024- 71000 units

2 week Total- 100,000 units

17th to 23rd Nov 2025- 41000 units

24th to 30th nov 2025- 65000 units

2 week total- 105,000 units.

So yeah, it may be down by 9% for black fiday week but up 5% with the prior week combined.

Interesting.

Actually the strongest December of PS5 was 1.39M.

Also PS4 had stronger Decembers than that, peaking at 1.82M in 2016, which is stronger than Switch's 1.8M.

I won't be surprised if this December PS5 hit it's record for that month in Europe, passing the 1.39M number.

Also that trend where PS sells more in November, started just recently, from 2023.

With PS4 and even PS5 up until 2023, December was always the stronger month.
