[Circana] May 2023 Hardware and Software Sales

[On Demand]

First page of this thread is funny.

That’s what happens when you jump the gun without full data points.

PS5 is leading the market in 2023 in overall sales. Switch only sold more this month, barely at that probably, because of the LE Switch Zelda.

I was gonna ask "Where FFXVI", but then I realized it's may and not June, woops.

YUA, good meme taste

Lmao @ghostz and @Welfare both getting stomped on by the PS5's triple digit percentage increase.

Huh?

I asked him that question because I was double checking if PS5 was or wasn't triple digit.

Should've asked if the Xbox decreased by single or double digits instead, everybody was already talking about that PS triple.

HUH Mat's response to me was where the triple digit PS5 came from lmao

He's not going to answer that other question.

Chad Warden is the one that brought up the PS triple, stop trying to take credit for his work.

Double-digit percentage growth in both PlayStation 5 and Switch dollar sales again offset declines on other platforms.

God bless Mat for delivering that piece of bad news gently

Not sure what's funny when most of us already knew the reason why PS5 was second this month, doesn't change the facts of what I said about their content drought. A 6 year old system trading blows with a brand new PS5 is embarrassing. Sony not releasing a special edition PS5 3 years into it's lifecycle also contributes to this, while Nintendo shits out a special edition switch for every game release.

I agree about no special edition consoles. By this point PS4 had dozens of custom designed consoles. I don’t know what Sony’s marketing team is doing this generation.

Still though, Switch selling more this month is nothing embarrassing at all. They launched a big first party game with a limited edition system. It had better put up some numbers. PS5 still leads in total sales this year. Which shows that whatever amount the Switch sold in May it still couldn’t pass the PS5. June will easily be PS5 back on top monthly.

It has nothing to do with any lack of games either. PS5 had a ton of games release this quarter.

They are in stock everywhere. I don't know why people keep saying this. A quick check for Target in store stock shows them in every store around me.

Is the Xbox decrease due to shortages?

Didn't they hear their lord and savior Philness III Esq. publicly declare that Series X supply issues are over just like 2-3 weeks ago?

There is no way this could be the case based on what I've seen of local stock.

Sure, and we know how often he tells the truth.

That is YoY. I’m referring to April to May.

Holy shit, Hogwarts just keeps on trucking, blue hairs btfo.

If anything the Series X supply should be up YOY. Series S has just cratered since 2022.
