mm switch and ps4 have been  very close almost every month in npd, we are talking 10-20k. there is no logical reason why it can't win december, people will be picking up gifts and ps4 is way cheaper with way more games. as for amazon lets look at the best selling games of 2017 on npd and compare to amazon best selling games of 2017, enough said.

npd best selling games of 2017

 

Here are the top ten best-selling games of 2o17 so far:

• Destiny 2
• Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands
• NBA 2K18
• Madden NFL 18
• The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
• Grand Theft Auto V
• For Honor
• Horizon Zero Dawn
• Injustice 2
• Mass Effect: Andromeda

 

 

Yeh, i wouldn't put too much faith in that chart, it's about 2 months out of date now. If it were to be updated it would likely resemble the Amazon chart much more. 

 

Also do you not realise people buy Switch as Christmas presents too and if someone wants a Switch for Christmas, they are not gonna be impressed with a PS4, simply because it's cheaper. Iirc, Nintendo usually get the biggest HW spikes, relatively to their competitors. Nintendo make desirable Christmas presents, it seems. Again, a quick look on Amazon most wished list will confirm this to you. Ik Amazon isn't a stonewall indicator of what will happen but gives a very good guide/insight. It's good you are checking there. It means you are at least learning something!

I would hate to disapoint you, but a lot of kids receive gifts that are different than what they requested. It can be either a different model of console or even a completely different type of gift.

So if a parent is looking for the Switch the child asked for, but it isn't available or if he find a X1 or PS4 cheaper and with games he could also like then there is a possibility of it changing what he was to buy.

Also yes Nintendo have good spikes on holidays, but curiously growups don't need to wait for holidays to buy what they want so are we implying that Nintendo consoles are for kids?
