Will be a close race to the end, here are the numbers through Sept based on previous leaks

PS4-2.49m

SW-2.32m

We know Switch won October which likely drops the PS4 lead to ~150k.

WAIT.

You think Switch only outsold PS4 by 20k this month? How? Last month the gap was 10k, you think that Mario Odyssey only increased the gap by 10k units?

 

PS4 will of course see a drop, now, October is a 4 weeks month compared to September 5 weeks. Even if PS4 had the same avg in weekly sales, which seem kinda unlucky since last month was Destiny and NBA which were bigger than AC Origins and Shadow of War, PS4 would be at 240k this month.

At best, PS4 got outsold by 50k.

Nope, just giving a worst case scenario situation, the gap is 150k at the most and could potentially be under 100k.
