Xbox and PS5 being essentially tied this yer is impressive.
Switch will fall behind 2020 soon, but it's still ahead 2019, which should be the target. Switch outsold PS5 and XBS combined so far.
Thanks @TrunksWD as always for these charts. I just wanted to point out that the First Total column for 2021 (Year to Date Sales Comparison (Same Periods Covered)) is a bit off, It should be 5,668,019 instead of 3,675,281
