Seems like the Japanese are loving the Switch more than PS4 but that is a hand held focused territory.  Now explain PS4 losing out to Switch in NPD recently and I believe Switch will be on top again for the remainder of the year.  Mario is about to drop.

I think you're forgetting that 1 of the 4 months the PS4 lost against the Switch was because it was the launch month of the Switch. The rest of the wins have low margins - as low as 5K. Could be due to the release of anticipated Switch games like Splatoon. In any case, the US is a close race in the months post the Switch launch month. And the Switch is expected to sell more than the PS4 as it is the newer console. You're also forgetting that the US is still only 1 country.

Right, because consoles sell the most in their first year on the market. That's why PS4 sold the most in 2014 and has only declined since. It's not like PS4 is selling faster in 2017 than in any previous year or anything.
