just a guess based on the price of  xb1 and history of nintendo holiday period sale boost.i feel like ps4 gonna do more than a million but i am low balling my prediction.

people need to be very oblivious to think the switch will win. I know it is doing great, but really there is no way for it to outsell the PS4

PS4 1.5

switch 1.1

xbox 1.0

Switch won several NPDs over PS4 in 2017, and it's December, Nintendo's best month historically. There was no $199 PS4 like there was in Nov, it certainly isn't out of the realm of possibility Switch won Dec.

Is it?! What were last year‘s numbers?! There are no pre-orders this time and there’s no Black Friday in December.

December is almost always the best month, for all consoles, regardless.

Actually in case of PS4 and especially XB1 it's not that case (XB1 until now had better sales in November than in December), because PS4 and XB1 has huge BF deals in November. But Nintendo history always have huge boost in December compared to November, especially because Nintendo realty has good BF deals. So PS4 and XB1 can easily have worse or flat sales compared to November sales, while its expected that Switch will have huge boost.

If it does win then what? What will you do?



This is my prediction based on some insiders from resetera and looking at history.

 

Switch 1700K

Ps4 1300K

Xbox one 900K

 

Edit: Forgot this is my very first prediction for NDP numbers :)



6x master league achiever in starcraft2

Beaten Sigrun on God of war mode

Beaten DOOM ultra-nightmare with NO endless ammo-rune, 2x super shotgun and no decoys on ps4 pro.

1-0 against Grubby in Wc3 frozen throne ladder!!

From next month, i'll add a deadline, so in case there won't be informations like that to influence predictions.



PS4 deals were too good, and Switch simply didn't have as much stock.

 

PS4:  1.5 Million

Switch:  1 Milloin

Xbox:  23 (yes, twenty three with the xbox one x bump, because who would buy an xbox now?)
