I expect PS4 to finish little ahead of Switch and both to be healthy ahead of X1.

With new informations from Resetera, saying that PS4 will probably do similar numbers like last year, I changed my predictions:

Nov
PS4- 1.6 million
NSW- 1.25 million
XBO- 1.05 million

Dec
PS4- 1.15 million
NSW- 2 million
XBO- 1.05 million

YTD
PS4- 5.75 million
NSW- 5.75 million
XBO- 4.2 million

I feel the PS4 will be up this year for November and december. But not as much as it could have been if there as more of that spiderman bundle. So i have it for around 1.8M in nov, Up YOY but only by around 13%. 

Which may seem bad when compared the the switch that may be up by as much as 50% in nov taking it to around 1.3M.

I believe that even though stock of the $199 PS4 was limited, there are a lot of other games this year that would push for all round better sales that were not there last year. RDR2, Spiderman, GOW, CODBO4 will al have sight tack on effects on sales.

We will see, Benji said that PS4 and Switch in November will be much closer than people think.

I was told it would be 2 mins right before whenever you put yours up.

Yup, you're that kinda lucky.
