i just don't believe ps4/xb1 sold that much, switch was close to those consoles, no way they both did more then 190k for 4 weeks. we also know ps4 didn't have it's best January.

We know? Didn't follow all thread because i woke up just 3 hours ago. If so PS4 did less than 271k.

In any case, we know PS4 / Switch / XB1 in revenue are basically there, but difference in sales can still be high, because:

1) PS4 was selling for 299$ (same Switch price) all month, and there is the Pro at 399$, with the Monster Hunter Bundle selling at $449.
2) XB1 has the Xbox one X which cost 499$

Would not surprise me if between Switch and XB1 there is a 100k difference, but probabily 70k or so seem more accurate. And yes, that's a good month for XB1.

1. So, the gap isn't that much but still around 80k between the PS4 and Switch? That's interesting.

2. I wouldn't say 5% more is MUCH bigger than 40%.

1) I'm saying that i don't think my predictions were much off. If quickrick is right and PS4 is under 271k, then my 257k prediction for PS4 should be very close. Switch most likely should be over 300k, we'll see, so maybe i was a it optimist but not that much off. I'm interested on XB1, my prediction was 188K, but looks like is easy at least 200k, probabily more like 220-240k, hard to say right now, we'll see.

2) Well, i think that's subjective. Remember that we talk about BIG numbers, so a 5% turn out be big in my opinion.

well i only say ps4 is below 271k because it was mentioned in npd xbox had its best January, if ps4 had it's best jan it would have been mentioned  as well, as for 70k, that seems way to high according so someone here who said ps4 sold 93% of switch sales if if you add up pro sales as being 20%.
