Topic	Switch sets new sales record: best selling console for 22 consecutive months
The Popo 10/18/20 11:28:05 AM #40:	Im honestly surprised that the PS2 didnt hold that record with like 36+ months, considering how it absolutely spanked the competition: PS2: 155 million units (released in 2000) Xbox: 24 million units (released in 2001) GameCube: 22 million units (released in 2001) The next big console release was Xbox 360 in 2005. Im guessing that the GBA would be the only thing responsible for it at any point beyond the first few months when all the consoles came out? It was also released in 2001 and had 81 million units sold. I cant imagine the Xbox or GameCube did much to be competitive in most months beyond the launch. pikachupwnage posted... Kinect. Also Wii U flopped and PS3 was losing is momentum. Not so much more boughbit as less bought the competition Nintendo DS was released around the same time (a bit earlier) and sold 154 million units. Id think that woulda interrupted the 360 at some point. Unless this record isnt counting handhelds (and if thats the case, it makes my PS2 question even more puzzling). --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran <cite>The Popo posted [p:945994780] in Switch set...
