People are already predicting success for the PS5 without knowing a damn thing about it. Reminds me of the talk just before the PS3 launch.

On the other hand we already know that the Switch is a successful console that is selling comparably to the PS4. Isn't it more logical prediction that the Switch will have the top spot for the next 4+ years?

People are expecting PS5 to be a success because not only a Playstation have been the best home console the last 8 years, but it has been since 1996 except in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 (Wii was those years). So people are just using common sense...

Although i give you that the Switch is going to be the best selling home console in 2019 and 2020 at least.

As I said, this reminds me very much of talk about the PS3 before it launched.  At least at that point that Sony had a basically flawless track record.  Now they have the PS3 and Vita on their record.  They are definitely not flawless anymore.  Yet people still act like they are.

It really is nonsense to declare PS5 success, when they haven't even announced it yet.  Especially when you take into account that there is a new console on the market that is already very successful.
