Whats there to say? Most people on here and elsewhere expected the Switch to go over about as well as the Wii U. People can say otherwise but all you have to do is go back to articles posted on hear from 2016, 2017 and 2018 and see all the Switch hate and low ball sales projections in the comments sections. Back then the Switch was lucky if it got to N64 numbers before the PS5 dropped and put it out of its misery. Since then every Switch sales milestone is heavily downplayed or flat out ignored.

It took years for people to finally settle on the Switch is only selling because it was a Nintendo handheld all along. Which begs the question using that logic why did so many think it would bomb ahead of its launch despite 3D Mario, Mario Kart and 3D Zelda being year 1? lol People have been feening for Nintendo to go 3rd party for so long they lost touch with reality. Anyway next up is the OG Game Boy at some point in the near future.

Most of the people that got the PS4 also got the Switch. The actually reason however for it's over the top performance is simply because of Japan. There the PS4 sold 7 million and Switch sold 27 million units! Outside of Japan the PS4 is still ahead by about 20 million units.

But honestly it doesn't matter. The real winner here is gamers... And Japan. The so called Japanese consoles racked up nearly 250 units. And yes I do realize that PlayStation is now an American company.

PS3 to PS4
Wii U to Switch

Absolutely fabulous results.

I remember all the doom and gloom articles about the Switch before release. Even the most optimistic Nintendo fan couldn't have predicted the Switch would do THIS well.
