Media Create Sales: Week 41, 2019 (Oct 07 - Oct 13)
 
The Switch is on its way to 10 million before 2020.

That'd be a great feat for the console.

Will the PS4 ever get to 10 Million before the PS5 launches?

First Sony needs an aggressive holiday sales campaign again this year like last year. Problem is that it only seems to shift sales forward rather than boosting sales overall (PS4 hardware sales at the beginning of this year weren't great, but that's possibly because people just bought their PS4 early in the holidays for KH3 and RE2R.)

In the near future we have P5Royal, CoD and Death Stranding. None of these are really system sellers. CoD looks to be doing worse preorder wise compared to last year's breakout CoD sales (500K+ LTD). Next year there's FF7R part 1. Given KH3 didn't do a whole lot hardware wise we'll see. I'm guessing no to be perfectly honest.

Fairly surprised that NSW Lite is selling fewer than the original. Gutted features notwithstanding.

Note too how N have made no PR sales announcements about how well the NSW Lite has sold anywhere. Which is to say, not very well. If it had, there'd be congratulatory sales announcements galore. :)

Fairly surprised that NSW Lite is selling fewer than the original. Gutted features notwithstanding.

Note too how N have made no PR sales announcements about how well the NSW Lite has sold anywhere. Which is to say, not very well. If it had, there'd be congratulatory sales announcements galore. :)
Ring Fit Adventure was driving sales this week and you need Joy-Con for that (thus a boost to normal Switch sales). Switch Lite will be for the cost-conscious consumers. Also there's a Pokemon Switch Lite that was releasing soon so folks were likely holding off for that. Anyways, Nintendo's report has released since then, so you can look at sales there. I honestly think Switch Lite will come into play more in the holidays with Pokemon but we'll see.

Ah, ok thanks for that.

It'll be interesting to see the sales of Lite, considering the XL versions of New/3DS were the dominant versions.

Could it have been more commercially profitable to have launched a standard, smaller version first and then the bigger one?

Unless, NCL decide to release a revised system with an even bigger screen than the standard system that is.
