How many consoles will be sold in 2023 ?

2023 mark the 3rd full year for PS5 and Xbox Series with the end of shortages.
It's also the seven full year for nintendo Switch.

Will PS5 sales beat the PS4 peak year (20M shipped) or even Nintendo Switch peak year (26,3M sold in 2020) ?
Will the Xbox Series sales see a big increase over 2022 thanks to Starfield and better avaibility for Xbox Series X ?
How Nintendo Switch sales will hold on it's seven year ?

Let’s see who will have the best prediction.


For prediction I recomand to use this Format:


[NSW] X,XM
[PS5] X,XM
[XBS] X,XM


Note: prediction are for hardware Sell-trough and not shipment.

Wouldn't it be better to do a prediction thread based on shipped numbers as we receive these numbers more reliably from the FY reports.

I generally agree with that regarding Nintendo and Sony, but we do not get XBS shipment numbers from Microsoft.
