people are really try to spin this.........its common sense once Nintendo announce it reach 10 million and it did this in 9 days less than ps4, it was common sense to know Switch will beat out Sony first 12 months.......it was 9 days behind ps4 and had a whole December and January, before sales slow down in month 11 or 12.......while around month 11 or 12 for ps4 it was already out of holiday season...........so with both systems having one holiday sales and you add up all 12 months........Switch was going to beat the PS4 with ease........and there is still stock issues all over, especially Japan where people still line up

once April start and the first month of the second year start, we can start comparing how it will do against ps4 in its 2nd year..........Sony will get back the lead in 2nd year because their second holiday season coming up.......so as long as Switch keep it close.....by time its holiday season come up it can erase the lead and catch up or pass the ps4

it didn't reach 10 million before Ps4. your comparing a launch holiday, to post launch holiday, it's a very unfair comparison, and is the only reason switch is ahead of wii, and ps4. PS4 first holiday it was sold out the whole time, in fact, it had a million preorders 3 months before launch, and wii well that was much worse, they shipments were around 1 million for nov-dec sold out the whole time. 

my mistake I meant to wrote it did it in 9 days extra it reach 10 million after ps4.......so if you line up their months together for a whole year.....12 month line up......with both systems getting a holiday......Switch was always going to be ahead.....theres nothing unfair about it......did you forget how much switch had shortage the whole year....and people still on line playing lottery for one in Japan......how is it any different, both 12 months line up.....if anything it make it fair to compare

 

ps4 Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar, April May June, July August, sept, Oct

Switch.... Mar, April, May, June, July, Aug, Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb

 

12 months to compare.....both had shortage, with switch shortage being known more.....even more pics posted of people on line.......

 

like I was trying to say above, once it was posted it took Nintendo 9 more days to reach same 10 million and Nintendo 12 months was not finish yet......I knew it was impossible for the ps4 to sell enough systems in August, September and October.........vs Switch last 3 months to make 12 months which its last 3 months were Dec  Jan Feb  to make 12 months

 

Once Ps4 November and December sales numbers get enter in for month 13 and 14 of PS4 and Switch life......it will erase Switch lead or pass it.....but if Switch can hold up for month 15 to 24, they can continue to be ahead even in its second year vs ps4 second year
