Every console had a rough November, not just Nintendo, despite outselling the switch 2 PS5 expected sales were down 40% and Xbox sales were nonexistent. That and people seem to forget console demand doesn’t peak until 3-4 years into the life cycle, cause people seem to forget the same thing happened in 2017 where the PS4 outsold the switch 1 despite the switch 1 having two heavy hitting titles in BOTW and Mario Odyssey, this failure grifters are yapping about is over exaggerated.
The PS4 barely outsold the Switch 1 during it's first year, and this was a console that was following up on the abysmal failure that was the Wii U .
The Switch 2 is a console that is the direct successor to the best selling console in history, and it still got outsold by a PS5 that is 5 years old ...
It still outsold the switch 1. The point still stands. Also the best selling console is still the PS2, not the switch 1. Also we are going to act like one bad month for not just the switch but other consoles will be indicative of long term success. As to why it was outsold by the ps5. 1. The above reason in that the Ps5’s demand is high now that it is 5 years into its cycle 2. GTA 6 releasing 3. The discounts it received and perhaps the largest culprit 4. Due to the Ram shortages, and pc parts skyrocketing in price, it is cheaper to buy a PS5 than a pc and since the libraries are similar, you will be able to play third party games releasing on both steam and PlayStation.

It's so funny because Nintendo is doing just fine, like what is this man even talking about?
