Why is it obvious? Does it mean every new system should outsell the current best selling ones, even on their said peak years, just because they're new? I don't think so, it's not that obvious. Btw, I don't expect the Switch to win the whole year, I think that's basically impossible. 

Switch is selling  like hot cakes.

Horizon  on a 60+ mill user base can't  even outsell zelda  or mario on a  what? 3-3.5mill user base.

 

Noo signs of slowing  down, ps4is definitely  slowing  down its just too damn expensive.(should  be 200 by now)

 

I fully  expect  switch  to outsell  ps4 entire year ww.

PS4 is actually up YOY in the US so far.  It should also see quite a few nice boosts with all the SW that's releasing this year, as well as a cut to $199 this holiday season.

And yes, Switch is selling really well. However, we are not even 2 full months away from its launch.  We'll have to see where it settles in a month or so to determine if this will continue.  I mean, what's going to happen if it stays $299 and then becomes obvious that it won't be getting many of the big titles this year?  Nintendo is being smart and spacing out its 1st party titles, but I doubt they can 100% make up for 3rd party droughts.  It may not matter, like it didn't with the Wii early on.  But, then again, it might.
