Famitsu numbers - PS5 vs Switch

The PS5 is about two weeks away from passing the Switch YTD in Japan according to Media Create numbers

A difference of 47,833 units separates PS5 from Switch thus far this year

Sony is doing a much better job of supplying the market and the Switch is saturated at this point.

Still, it will be crazy to see the Switch finally fall behind the PS5 in the Japanese market YTD; if that’s indeed what’s happening here. We’re interested to see how Final Fantasy XVI and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom affect sales.

Interesting one to watch here - we may have a showdown akin to PSP vs NDS back in 2010 when for the entire year, both systems were neck and neck - with PSP edging out the DS for the year.

Shot out to Chris1964 for doing a great job compiling Japanese sales data over the years.
