Now there's a question : UK, FR and US ranking roughly show the same tastes in termes of software, so why is Switch slightly ahead of PS4 in the US whereas it can't even remotely compete in Europe? |
Because of one factor: FIFA.
The biggest sport and pastime in Europe is football. Sony has a lot of marketing going at matches and commercials. Bring the two together and there you have it.
Personally, from the people I know who buy Playstations, I have noticed two things: Many buy one out of peer pressure (because other friends have that version for that console) and many buying just FIFA and the yearly iteration of that franchise, and nothing more.
