The latest gaming sales data has been released for May 2024, and with it comes the most recent numbers regarding overall current-generation console sales. Both the PlayStation 5 (PS5) and Xbox Series X|S were released the same week back in 2020, but both have had different sales journeys.

According to Circana, the PS5 is outselling the PS4 by 8% through its first 43 months. On the other side of things, however, the Xbox Series consoles are behind the Xbox One in sales during the same timespan by 13%. They also sit behind the Xbox 360 during that same period.

Though percentages were given, the Circana data didn’t give specifically unit totals for the PS5 and Xbox Series. That said, VGChartz says that, as of June 1, the PS5 has sold 58.78 million units while the Xbox Series has sold 28.74 million.

For the month of May 2024, specifically, the PS5 led the way in hardware sales in both units sold and dollars. The Xbox Series came in 3rd in total units behind the Switch but 2nd in dollars. As a whole, however, year-on-year sales numbers have declined by a “double-digit percentage”.

The Nintendo Switch had the “most significant” fall year-on-year. Overall, sales are 30% lower year-to-date than in 2023.

    Are you aware of how many units the switch has sold? I used to think people were exaggerating when they said you were just a massive Sony fanboy Bit it's gotten a bit ridiculous lately dude

    I really hate how you start your videos saying "whats up guys dreamcastguy here" then you start talking to us about your topic but around the 1 minute mark you pointlessly start over reintroducing yourself with the same line Instead of just continuing your topic. What happened to youtubers discussing things like genuine people Instead of always sounding like greedy robots...

    Why is PLAYSTATION putting its own games (Horizon) on the Switch, a console it "crushed"??? 🤣Also, why ISN'T Lego Horizon on PS4??? Something isn't adding up. Also, why aren't you talking about the fact that ANIPLEX (who is owned by Sony) has been making Switch games for years?
  • @cletustrainer
    I used to enjoy your content more. When I watch most of your videos now it feels like it's meant for somebody about half my age and half my Intellect. I've been sub to you for what must be close to a decade. This is getting really really old, and I play on Playstation and Xbox. No favorites.
  • @Joseph928100
    111 mil switches? Think it's sold a bit more than that my boy
  • @josephhooks1292
    Dreamcast guy fanboying again. Showing false numbers for switch. Switch is at nearly 150 million not 111. It’s on track to sell 160+ million. Ps5 is tracking way behind that. 60+ million in 4 years vs 150 million in 7 years. Sony would be at about 110 million in 7 years at best.
  • @Molybed1
    Also, why aren't you talking about the fact that the Switch is currently outselling the PS5 weekly in Japan, where it is doing an average of 210,000 unit sales a month there since Jan 2024, similar to PS5 monthly sales in the USA?

    Someone asked for the "overall PROFITS the big 3 console corps are generating from gaming alone". Here you go. Nintendo - $3 billion (2024) Sony Game & Network Services division - $1.9 billion (2024) Microsoft Xbox division - Microsoft does NOT disclose the "profits" of Xbox because there isn't any. interesting that you had to ask for these PROFIT numbers because they aren't easy to find. I wonder why? 🤔Revenue numbers are easy to find though.... hmmmmmmm??????? 🤔

    As a Playstation player since 1998, it would hate to see the Xbox consoles dissapear. The reason Sony makes an effort is because they have competition. If the competition goes under, Sony will also make less of an effort.

    "I do think this is the most units(Switch) we're ever gonna get.": The Switch is currently at 140 Million units sold. "They're(PS5) at 60 Million is just 4 years?": In March 2021, 4 years after the release of the Switch in March 2017, the system sold just under 83 Million units. "The PlayStation is still just getting started: If it takes them 4 years to get started on a $500 console with overpriced peripherals, such as the $500 PSVR2 that they've essentially given up on now, that doesn't bode well for their future endeavors.
  • @suegannon2293
    The Nintendo Switch has currently sold 141.3 million units, so that page you showed is out of date
  • @govinddayani
    Sorry bro that is a lie The Switch is crushing the ps5 n xbox 😅😂😂😂
  • @graffittitagger65
    Videos like this are pointless. Everyone is moving to PC and so am i.
  • @Molybed1
    This is why I warned you, DO NOT bring up Switch in your CRINGE console war. The facts your audience will see about Nintendo will scare them. Nintendo is making its biggest profits in its entire history, its making nearly DOUBLE the profits of Sony Interactive Entertainment and Nintendo now has Sony not only making games for Switch, they have Sony working for them making movies (Zelda).

    Not even close to crushing switch dude. Come on man.
