More of a testament to just the increased popularity of gaming as a whole as opposed to an increase in quality

Gamers and the industry:
"Once again, thank you Nintendo and Sony, thank you. *looks over at MS* thanks for showing up, at least there's that."

yep. 'mediocrity has never been more profitable!' is a pretty dismal take, actually...

I'm retarded?
Sure, but not because the consoles or games are great, but because gaming has become super mainstream compared to 10+ years ago, but ya'll love to ignore this simple fact.

Also, no one has argued that it wasn't a successful gen in terms of popularity.
People are just arguing it's garbage. Believe it or not but tons of popular things are garbage. I'm not sure if you've ever turned on the radio before or turned on your TV.
On the contrary, people are retarded so often popularity is a sign that something is shit.

I'm not sure if we can tell, I think Sony usually report combined software sales numbers for both PS4 and PS5.

A combined 1.47B of PS4 and PS5 software units have been sold since PS5's debut in late 2020.
Why throw PS4 software sold into the mix? Because you can literally buy PS4 games from your PS5.

And no offensive to PS5 but its launch was kinda weak.

PS3/Xbox 360 gen device. It was never going to get wide support even if it sold over 50 million, as it wasn't even a 64 bit processor.

We have to back?With ps5 they'd have more sales if there was a cheaper price tag, PS3 this many years in was at $299.99, a move bundle was at 399.99

Switch 2 will do S1 numbers tho, or more, even if PS5 does less than PS4, I'm sure S2 can compensate for PS5 + Xbone Series

I don't know...one of those is a portable/console hybrid released mid-way through last gen, Xbox has been struggling, and the PS5 is keeping pace with PS4.
The last part there to me is this console gen, it's keeping steady. We're past the days of the explosive 2000s, and gaming is still growing but that growth rate is stagnating.
And to be fair, a pandemic, bad economy from that pandemic, graphic hardware stagnating, and AI driving up costs has probably held this gen back artificially.

Why does that matter?
How does you playing games somehow hold more value than someone else playing games?
By the way the casual boom happened in the Xbox 360/PS3/Wii era

Switch 2 launch has helped keep sales up year over year. If not for it, I think it would be down.

They had to fudge the numbers somewhere to make up for the low Series sales

PS3, 360, Wii, PSP and DS = 511m
And yes, PSP and DS need to be included when OP includes Switch as Switch Lite could make up 50% of all Switch sales for all we know.

Can you share me an example of someone denying that they are selling successfully?They tried to

And I'm not sure what your second sentence has to do with anything. Taylor Swift is the most popular musician in the world and I can still believe that it's crap, and it's not just some sort of subjective bias.
