Interesting - do you have a source for these? I'd be interested to see how 3DS did in the rest of its second year, so I can think about Switch NPD for the remainder of this year.

This is how 3DS sold WW through years, for now Switch sold 15.5m in its first hole first year and this year will also easily sell more than 15m, while 3DS didnt had one single year with sales above 14m, and only 3 years with sales above 10m (one with 14m, one with 13.5m and one with 12.2m)

PS4 in 13 months sold 18.5 sold through. switch after 15 months probably around 17.5 million.

And Switch after this holiday season will again be in front PS4 sales launch aligned, than PS4 with onother holiday season in front Switch and so on...so most accurate is to compare full FY year, for instance Switch FY 2017. and FY 2018. vs PS4 FY 2014. and FY 2015.

I'm talking about WW sales, which what matters when talking about total units sold.

Anyway you think 17M is worst case is your opinion, worst case is 13m, i expect it will be 14-15.

I also talking about WW sales.

Of Course it is for you, you also didn't thought that Switch will keep selling so great last year and you also thought that this year Switch "sales will fail over cliff". ;)

Just be ready to have my pic on your avatar when you lose all the bets lol. I thought switch was suppose to destroy Q1 2017 sales according to you?

Not worst then your switch will outsell ps4 in 2017, anyway that was 7 months ago, and 7 months ago i clarified it would be flat,  so i guess thats the only ammo you guys have when i have been right mostly on everything else.

Just to remind you about our bets, Switch will 100k more in US sales in May-September period compared to same period last year, and Switch will sell 3m units or more in November-December period of this year in US also.

Not destroy, but I expected/expecting better FY Q1 compared to last year.

Lol offocurse that was in 2017. when you said "Switch sales fall off a cliff after holiday season". :D   

You dont need to clarify that everything is very clear, you were negative about Switch sales and potential like usual. "fall off a cliff" dont have anything with flat sales, "fall off a cliff" means much worse sales not flat sales.

Stop saying i said that. For the 100th time that was a joke post. Your only using a joke post when you talk to me and its getting annoying.

Sure it was. Nothing in your post suggested it was a joke. it was in the ps4 vs switch ww sales from 2017.

Only you of course. I posted that when it was bumped and toward then end of the year. If you cant tell the difference between sarcasm thats your fault. Coming from the guy with falling off the cliff and says he meant be flat lol
