US: Nintendo Switch is only 1.1 million units behind PlayStation 2 in lifetime sales

Data analyst Mat Piscatella from sales tracking group Circana in the United States has revealed that the Nintendo Switch family of systems are only 1.1 million sales units behind Sony’s monumental PlayStation 2 console. Mat Piscatella post went on to say that all three current systems on the market are currently doing well and that the console market isn’t doomed like some would have you believe.

In the US, PS5 is still 7% ahead of PS4 LTD and Switch is only 1.1M units behind PlayStation 2 in lifetime sales.

Even Xbox Series (for all its known challenges) is holding close to Xbox 360's LTD pace (and will get a CF25 boost).

No, the console market isn't doomed. Sheesh.
