A lot of people saying the PS4 will sell more only are looking at the present and not the future. This is also why a lot of people thought the Switch would fail because, in the present, the Wii U failed. Also, no one is looking at handheld sales. Here are the first 4 fiscal years of the DS
3/31/05: 5.27 (system launched in November)
3/31/06: 11.46
3/31/07: 23.56
3/31/08: 30.31
3/31/09:31.18
The sales are closely mirroring the DS. The only difference was the DS was released in November. In about 16 months (plus 9 days in Nov 04), the system sold 16.73 million. If Nintendo meets their projection, the system will meet that in 12 months (14 + 2.7). This is with only one holiday season. Like the DS, you already have Japanese publishers jumping on including Square, Namco, Marvelous, and maybe Capcom, and a lot of these will be exclusives. And of course, there will be Animal Crossing, 2D Mario and Pokemon.
By all accounts, Switch will sell better.
