I didnt know there was such a thread. Did anyone really think switch was gonna outsell ps4 worldwide this year? The ps4 had 2 month head start, even without it, i wouldve predicted ps4 to win easily

2 month head start for a 4 year old console doesn't mean anything when you are talking about something that happens to be a new console release. Launch months typically garner as uch as 1.5-2M sales worldwide in the launch month alone. That alone stands to make up for 2 months worth of (at the time) 3yr+ old PS4 sales.

Those that expected the NS to outsell the PS4 this year expected the PS4 to be down YOY. So basically they expected it to do like 15M in sales this year or 16M and figured the NS could sell that much in one year.

Yep... when reality is more like 13m switch's to 20m PS4's.

Maybe in 2018 the Switch can outsell the PS4? we need a "Who will win 2018 ww" thread :p'

 

next year "should" be closer between the Switch & PS4.
