I can't see the Switch getting close to the PS4 but maybe second place is up for grabs. I suspect the Xbox one will still beat it until a price drop at least though but you never know. Switch might just have some momentum. VGchartz figures are estimates though based on incomplete data I believe, they are expected to be in the ballpark area but not totally accurate. It's in Microsoft's interests to maximise the number as much as possible, include stock still in retail and include replacement units for hardware faults etc. Enough to tweak the figures slightly upwards. |
Its going to be an interesting fight between the switch and xbox, xbox is at an all-time low the beginning of this year, no real exclsuvies and an already announced Scorpio upgrade a few months away.
I am sure both the Switch and the Xbox will struggle this year and pick up in sales next year, it should be close and the Xbox will obv. win in NA and UK but in Japan and the majority of Europe the Switch should win.
PS4 is out of reach in total sales for both consoles, but lets see switch will need a price drop and more third party- and first party games first. But I expect 2018 will be a great year for the Switch and Xbox
