Errr but no... it's more likely for a console in the 3rd or 4th year to do better numbers than one on the 1st than the opposite... PS4 is to reach its peak this year or the next, and Switch is still on a growing part of the sales curve so nothing exceptional for it to not reach the sales of PS4 on this year.

Actually, there's a possibility that the Switch's sales curve might be just as front loaded as the Wii where that system peaked in it's second year and the 3DS in it's 4th year wasn't able to outsell it's 1st year either once we consider the system has already released half of it's biggest franchises ... 

Sure it can happen of it being frontloaded... but the comment on Switch on 1st year losing to a 4y old console as if it should win, isn't accurate. And that is why I put the answer.

Make me think that Switch is still grossly undertracked by VGChartz.

Nope. Considering the date Nintendo said it crossed 10M, it is even possible that VGC is slightly overtracking.
