If Amazon is anything to go by, Switch will outsell Ps4 massively in October!

Ps4 been sold out all month. Cant assume this is the case. Switch was sold out on amazon several months and it was close to ps4 hw sales almost every time (barring june)

Hasn't PS4 not been in stock for like the last 10 days now? There are just no PS4 Slim's that come with a free game on offer.

Oh! I had no idea Ps4 had been sold out most of this month. Not seen that anywhere. I was just going by the Amazon monthly figures.

Amazon is a good indicator but its not always 100%. Look at yearly charts. Mk8d is best selling game but its probably about number 10 in seperate sku for the year (npd us numbers)

I think they mean ps4 slim bundle which usually has been the biggest seller for playstation(sony probably waiting right time to announce new slim bundle?). Those ps4 you listed are usually lower than top 50.

PS4 has been doing just fine on Amazon. Switch seems to be distorting peoples view on it's performance lately.

This was one year ago, PS4 has been performing nearly identical: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=8100816
