He claims he uses real data, but how can he when he wasn't even sure ps4 would beat switch last month? yet he's pretty sure switch will win this month.

Based on his posts, it sounds like he works for GameStop and has access to all of its sales numbers. While GameStop holds the plurality of the video game marketshare, it is not necessarily representative of the landscape from Best Buy, Target, Walmart, and Amazon. Abdiel has numbers from Best Buy. If his assessment shows similar patterns as Benji's, then it's safe to assume that the trends are similar in other retailers.

honestly his assessment  sounds useless to me, when at the end of November he said switch could still win, if his data can't be certain   that ps4 would win november when it outsold switch by more then 850k, then his data is useless. shockingly he is certain switch will win december, and i bet it won't. to me it seems he uses online data.
