like i said before we havent had switch really available  at amazon the whole year, so this year will tell us the story of how accurate it is. I mean look, switch out sold xbox by a insane margin in December, but it out sold it by a small margin in NPD. 

Because again....... there is still November, which has XB1 head of Switch and PS4, which also can explain why the difference in December is not big.

 

I don't know how Amazon work and why Switch sells so insane if is sold out, all i say is that i know what expect from Amazon looking at the ranking.

Switch is for some reasons the favourite on Amazon, so i know that when i say Switch selling crushing the others console (like right now) i know i should not expect something like that, while on the PS4/XB1 part, it is usually very good. In 50 months and over, Amazon was wrong with the ranking like 3 or 4 times, that's an amazing record, and even then, it wasn't that off.

 

The point is: Amazon is not even close to be usefull. You just have to understand there is not only Amazon, if you keep in mind Amazon rules, it usually help a lot to understand how the situation looks like.

Is like Abdiel on ERA, he tend to overestimate PS4. Should we never trusth him? NO! Just keep in mind that on Best Buy PS4 is the favourite, while Switch is the favourite on Amazon.

yea i already know this, but by how much?  that's what we will find out this year. last year switch was barely in stock regular months on amazon, you have to remember this.
