Depends if the ps4 has another $200 discount. If not then Switch may have a chance,

PS4 was down YoY over the holidays last year even with the $199 deal.

My phone has been acting weird lately about posting links but here are the holiday sales reported by Sony.

2014-4.1 million

2015-5.7 million

2016-6.2 million

2017-5.9 million

I think that Pokemon: Let’s go to the polls will be the fastest selling Pkm game yet.
Yes I just said that.

Roughly 90.5% of the like/dislikes are positive.

Just another case of vocal "hardcore" forum goers thinking they represent the majority.

I think dominate is a bit extreme but yes it will likely sell the most.

No. PS4 will. Switch will miss the big holiday titles. But we can all fool ourselves and pretend it will.

Possibly. I use to think that Switch was going to run away with the entire thing but PS4, a console that is a generation BEHIND, it taking names. I don't see anything competing with PS4 anymore. Not until we get closer to PS5 anyway.



I don't think it will dominate, but I think it will sell the most, if it doesn't it will be quite a dissapointing year for the Switch.

I'm predicting 17.5-18m for 2018, but that's reliant on it having a very strong holiday, as Nintendo tend to.

It will be HUGE.

Smash and Pokémon are pretty big holiday titles
