Who are we?
Console Race is not a studio or a newsroom. It is a one-person project made by someone who loves video games and likes having precise numbers ready when the discussion gets heated.
I got tired of seeing console sales claims repeated with no source, half-remembered milestones, or numbers that changed from one conversation to the next. I wanted one place where I could check the figure fast and see where it came from.
Mostly people like me: players, friends, readers, and anyone who wants a clean answer when a gaming debate starts at dinner, in a group chat, or late at night.
Just one person who loves video games, likes comparing generations, and prefers exact figures over vague takes when somebody says a console "definitely sold more than that."
The goal is simple: fewer fuzzy claims, more precise numbers, visible sources, and enough context to say whether a figure is official, reported, or estimated.
