Nintendo / Sony investor reports. Nintendo published lifetime totals; PS5 annual shipments summed once, rounded to 0.1 million. Switch includes original, Lite and OLED; excludes Switch 2. PS4 reporting stops in 2022; comparable primary Xbox figures are not included. PS5 zeros precede its November 2020 launch. Different launch dates: not a comparison at the same age. Values between annual snapshots are visual interpolation.
