I love soo many gamers are soo hard trying  to  make excuses. 

 

I can easily  buy a switch here in Europe  and ps4 is killing  it

Picking 14 months would be such an arbitrary number though dont you think?

2 holidays over 1 is certainly a big deal no matter how you slice it.

Switch released  ww,ps4 didn't... 

Face the facts,  switch  won't  beat ps4 not  even close.

First 14 months is cheating a bit for Wii and PS4 because that's two holidays for them and only one for Switch.

The hint that the 14-month-window is poorly chosen is an excuse? It just is. Trucks don't even says that the Switch will beat the PS4, this would at current rate also be a bit optimistic.

No wonder people see delusional Nintendo-fans everywhere, if they are inventing them.

By the way: here in europe (germany) Amazon has for some time no stock (or it is gone every time I look) and you can get from 3rd-parties some for 70€ more. So yes, you can easily buy a Switch in europe, if you're willing to pay more.

I thought the Nederlands would love the Switch with all their caravans, the only console you can bring everywhere without compromises

Here in Luxembourg, it's sold out everywhere; something that didn't even happen to the Wii back in the days (Cactus always had some Wii in Stock whenever I went there, but not with the Switch)

Did you just try  to disrespect  one of the richest  a nf most advanced and humane countries  in the world?

I don't knwo what you want, the launches in the different regions for PS4 are easily recongnisable in the OP, so they are already covered. And the PS4 beats the Switch in the OP. So I don't know what you want here? The comment was directed at the 14-month-window from the other poster, from which we don't know the Switch-sales yet, but can already state that it includes one holiday for Switch and two for Wii. So, just calm down and read carefully what people write and instantly there is nothing anymore that needs your correction.

No we all love caravans. And Switch would be just perfect for it.

There's such an easy way to go around that without adding another holiday. (if you need help figuring it out, I can help you out) But since that doesnt really fit your agenda...

I'm not even saying the Switch will beath the PS4, I'm just saying 14 months of sales just to include 2 holidays is flat out silly. It's gonna skew it in a way that the very small PS4 markets being left out of the first 4 months would never do.

That's more than probable. I never argued that point but the 14 months timeframe still is a skewed timeframe.  12 or 24 months would be much better.



Signature goes here!

There's no way Switch will catch PS4. The PS4 sold 18.5 million in it's first 14 months. Only the Wii did higher than that at 20 million. And I promise you, the Switch won't be a bigger hit than the Wii.

First 14 months is cheating a bit for Wii and PS4 because that's two holidays for them and only one for Switch.

Good point. Lets say first 10 months, March 2017 to January 2018 for Switch and November 2013 to September 2014 for PS4. That's around 11.5 million for PS4. We'll see.



This is what i was thinking, thx for the thread



Very nice, it's already past XB1 and the gap will only increase. Regarding PS4, if Switch ends up its first 12 months 1 or 2 millions below PS4 with so many shortages... that would be amazing and bode very well for its future.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won
