Switch on top again. Interesting. Will the launch of Spiderman help PS4 claw back all the sales Switch has had over ps4 these past 4 weeks?

Holly Moses, Switch sales already surpassed half of Xbox One Sales in 16 months

dang your right! it looks like that by the numbers.
No doubt the Switch is selling at a much faster pace than the XB1 did.

Which statements?

Anyway, Switch doing really well around the globe. Momentum grew a lot in Europe and thats Nice. 

At the end of July they said that sales have increased  in each region since E3.

For America & Japan, this sites numbers reflect that with an increase in sales from mid-June through all of July, NPD & Media Create also confirmed this.

On the other hand, this site shows that Europe had a 1 week boost during E3 week but quickly dropped below the pre-E3 baseline.

Oh Okok. Means switch might be undertracked in Europe. Those numbers are already great anyway



Nice NS and Ps4 numbers. The Xbox numbers are abysmal. Is this Xbox One best year?



PS4 will start getting over it in August.



God bless You.

My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+

When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

No, the new things to say is "it's losing momentum" or "demand is decreasing", haven't you heard? The system is cooling off, and the momentum is being lost. It will not even reach 50m.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

With Tomb Raider, DQXI,Spider-Man, its inevitable. 

Do you have any expectations when after that Switch will have a chance to take the spot again (besides holidays as I would say most are expecting Switch to be the best selling more often than not)?

I'm guessing around November is when Switch will get the lead back in NPD

Early October I would say, when Super Mario releases.

I also think that from there on the Switch will stay on top for the rest of the year safe for a couple weeks with big releases on PS4

November and December I'm almost sure Switch will have most weeks ahead. And I was more thinking WW instead of NPD.

Not sure Party will have this big effect, but yes on the week of its release it shall lead.  And sure there is good chance that before Holidays Switch get some weeks for itself.
