I still can't make any call until their 3rd party sitch has solidified.

PS4 is selling around 200k a week this year. Both of the people you quoted are talking about the following years, which will very much see drops in weekly sales.

Edit: I don't know if someone's already pointed out this obvious fact to you because I'm not reading six pages, so sorry if someone has.

Im talking about System Selling Exclusives.

It will be really difficult to replicate what Nintendo has done this year with the Switch Lineup.

I mean, its like Sony releasing Uncharted, God of War and Gran Turismo in the same year!

Yea remember the wiiu, now that was comedy gold, see the same thing happening here, now saying the switch will bomb like wiiu, but it wont touch ps4, and japan sales will slow down fast, same with US.

most of those game come out on a yearly bases. ps4 has full industry support, pretty much every game coming out is gonna be on the console, except nintedo games, and sorry nintedo games, are not gonna sell more consoles then the entire industry's games, they had a domination on the handheld market, but the market will continue to shrink because of mobile.

3rd party multiplats are the primary system seller for PS consoles.

Theoretically Nintendo could release Smash Bros, Animal Crossing & Pokemon next year and it would have a similar affect as their system selling lineup this year.

So i ask, when will the gap close enough to surpass the PS4? Let’s be realistic here people.   Than you first would need to be realistic, you comparing best PS4 year in 4 years with Switch 1st year where most of year Switch had supply problems and still have them in Japan for instance. Second, Vgchartz numbers are not most accurate, but we know that Switch won most of NPD US months in sales from March and we know that Switch is selling much better than PS4 in Japan, and we again talk about best PS4 year until now and 1st Switch year with huge suply problems.

This chart shows both of that. Then you look at the EU.

You do realise that you comparing 1st Switch year where most of year Switch had huge supply problems (and still have them in Japan), with best PS4 year after 4. years on market!?

What you wish for and whats gonna actually happen isnt the same thing. If you believe sales are gonna slow down fast then you dont kno how sales work.

In a year from now goal post will be moved and youll say "next year itll slow down" as well.... Itll turn out true eventually but not as soon as you think (or should i say hope?)

Apart from personal bias, what makes you think it will slow down in any of these territories? Demand has only recently even been met in the U.S. and still not even been met in Japan. I actually voted for the PS4 to win, due to longevity. However whilst i still think that, i don't think it's a lock that the PS4 will even beat Switch WW this year. If Amazon is anything to go by, Switch wins in U.S. massively in both October and November, won't lose Europe by enough to offset that and probably wins December too. That would be enough to catch the 1.9m or whatever the gap is this year. Holiday time is when the sales race is "won" or "lost" in all reality.
