lol... that reaching.......

I'm surprised the PS4 won a week... if we can call it that, pretty much a tie.

I still feel the PS4 has no business selling so well though.
I honestly expect some minor adjustments, I dont see any reason why PS4 & Switch would be so close in North America based on Jan/Feb NPD and insiders saying Mario Day deals caused a notable increase in Switch hardware sales.


PS4 is doing really good but PS4+XBO is on par with PS3+360 in a similar timeframe so it does have business doing so well, it's basically just making up for XBO doing so poor.

PS3+360 week ending March 26, 2011-326k

PS3+360 week ending March 24, 2012-285k

PS3 March 24, 2012+360 March 26, 2011-313k

PS4+XBO week ending March 23, 2019-306k

I gave a few different comparisons and all show that PS4/XBO are doing similar to PS3/360 at this point in their lives.

Great data...... on another note I guess this is all irrevocable evidence that the PS/XB are in direct competition with themselves and not with nintendo. How well or poorly they do seem to have no effect no be affected by how well/poorly the nintendo platform is doing. And with the HD twist it surely seems that one doing well is usually at the expense of the other.

This is also why MS really wants cross platform play to be a thing. Makes a case for the Xbox if you don't have to own a playstation to play against someone that owns a playstation.
