"Today, PlayStation revealed that its PS5 has sold 40 million units. Microsoft doesn’t share hardware numbers typically, but court documents, math, and slides from an ID@Xbox in Brazil seem to suggest the Xbox Series X|S line-up is around 20-23 million units sold globally. That essentially puts the PS5 at a 2:1 advantage against Xbox, but perhaps the split is even worse than that beneath the surface. "

    As a current Switch owner deciding what to pick up next time I spring for a new system, the lack of anything portable from Microsoft and Sony is kinda wild to me.

      I still rock my Vita, and it makes me unreasonably angry that Sony didn’t seem to take it seriously.

        That’s a good point. No company has had a great time throwing their handheld into the market across from a Nintendo product.

        Steamdeck and Evercade seem to be holding their own, at least.
