Damn, PS4 kicking ass. If this holds true for all retailers, PS4 may indeed take April. Either way, looks to be a big gap between it and the XBO.

The Switch has been in front of the PS4 for the most of the month though.And even if it is just a couple of days, MK 8D will give it a nice boost, since Nintendo will probably reallocate alot of supply to meet the demand of that games launch.But yeah, it will be a close month.

Might want to look at the monthly chart.  The Switch is #8 and the PS4 is #9.  Considering they have been switching back and forth in the hourlies, I would say the sales of their top SKU is pretty damn close.  Now, if you look at the rest of the list, the Switch does have a 2nd SKU in the Top 100, but it's only at #73. 

Let's look at the Hourlies, now.  The Switch and PS4 remain in the Top 20.  But, the situation looks much different for the secondary SKUs.  Now that the Pro is in stock, it has been doing pretty good.  It currently sits at #59.  The next SKU is another PS4 at #63.  The secondary Switch SKU is at #75.  The PS4 also has the COD bundle, now, which sits at #95.  If things continue like this, those secondary PS4 SKUs are going to start rising in the monthly charts, passing the secondary Switch SKU.  So, all PS4 SKUs will beat the two Switch ones. 

You are right that MK8 may change things, so we'll have to see how that plays out.  Though, do we know if April NPD actually covers the 28th-30th?  I know they aren't exactly lined up with the beginning and end of every month.
