Sales numbers in Japan, courtesy of Famitsu, have shown that the PS5 had a really great year last year. To be precise, it sold 942,798 units during the course of 2021, which is pretty impressive when you consider both the stock shortages (which are still showing absolutely no signs of stopping) and the fact that Japan is very much Nintendo’s territory when it comes to sales.
To put that alongside the numbers for the other consoles on the market, the Switch unsurprisingly topped the charts at 5.3 million units sold (up from 5.1 million in 2020), which might make the PS5’s efforts seem slightly measly in comparison. However, when you look at the figures for the Xbox Series X and S, it starts to look significantly chunkier.
Xbox consoles only sold 95k units in Japan throughout 2021, making them about 10 times less popular than the PS5. In actual fact, they even sold less than the PS4, which managed to pull off 103K sales.
