Xbox one has now gone you cant spin it either way. if switch or ps4 were pulling 60k a week its a sign of a dying console its a shame, i may still buy a one s for the bcc titles as ive no 360 anymore.

Why hasn’t VGC included the April NPD numbers, which have shown considerably lower X1 numbers than estimated, in their obviously overtracked overall numbers?

PS4 is already ubiquitous and NSW has still Smash and Pokemon on it's lineup. I guess we can say that NSW has everything to take the #1 in the next 12 months.

Sony rolling out PS5 before 2020 doesn't look so bonkers now.

Just out of curiosity.....are you saying that the NSW will take #1 in NPD for the next 12 months straight?

Well his comment never mentioned NPD.

Also i think he means collectively, not weekly/monthly.

So what is your interpretation? That from now on WW Switch is going to dominate?

Dominate? No

My original sales predictions for 2018 were 17-18 million for PS4 & Switch each. I think both will do great and be very competitive.

So that by itself already invalidates the perception that 0D0 was saying and TheBlackNaruto was questioning.

And yep, I guess PS4 and Switch will have close sales this year and probably Switch will be ahead 2019.

How? ODO said nothing about dominating, he just said take #1 over the next 12 months.

And ya this year should be a fun little battle between the two.

Oh so you think he is saying in general. Okay gotcha interesting. I am not even sure why I put NPD lol. I know I was thinking WW when I typed that comment but wrote NPD smh.

So he must be going in line with Nintendo and their Fiscal year prediction then I am assuming.

I believe that came from he putting PS4 as ubiquitous (so low sales from now on). And then Switch as 1#, together that associated with domination.

I guess, it just didnt come off that way to me.

But ya regardless PS4 & NSW will both do great this year, XBO will possibly have its best year and 3DS will do good considering its age and support.

Should be an all around good year for the console market.
