The Switch 2 has absolutely been a massive success. But I think this exaggerates that success by only using 4 days worth of data for it. I don't think anyone expects it to maintain nearly 900k units every day for the first month or even the first two weeks. The sales are clearly going to be front loaded for console launches with good supply.

And congrats to the 3rd parties cashing in. CDPR, Capcom, Sega, and Squeenix in particular.

You must be referring to the Steam Deck.this chartit's like coming the daily rate of a movie's opening weekend versus the daily rate of another movie's full run

Switch² is killing it, like violently, we're talking real slaughter with gruesome dismemberment, pools of blood and broken families.
Nintendo must be happy with the results so far.

On the other hand here's an accurate depiction of anyone thinking the Steam Deck is a console:

But PC handhelds are chipping away at the portable market!

And if Sony launches a proper Vita 2, I'm all in.

Because scalpers bought 4+ consoles each per scalper I don't know one person who has the switch 2 enjoy your switch 2 if you have one I think people are thinking about series x, ps5 and pc gaming still. I hope for all our sakes Nintendo is done with these "hybrid" consoles and the return to traditional consoles, let regular handhelds come back, pay their respect to the gameboy and psp.

It seems like it will be a very succesful console.
However, there is a problem with this data set, launch units for the PS4\5 (and very likely the Switch 1) were constrained by their respective units made.
They could have put the xbox one sales units over this period and it would probably be pretty close to the PS4's at that point in their lifespan.
Good on Nintendo for making enough units!

It's all about stock availability.
PS4/PS5/Switch 1 instantly sold every unit manufactured for years but Nintendo has done an amazing job with making stock available for the Switch 2.

Only if they cloned themselves twice, and one of the three was able to get ahold of two.Because scalpers bought 4+ consoles each per scalper I don't know one person who has the switch 2 enjoy your switch 2 if you have one I think people are thinking about series x, ps5 and pc gaming still.
