I feel like this just confirms what I have been thinking. When PS4 won 2017 in total sales people were out champing it like that was hard for it to do ... even though it only won because of stock, pricing, and a two month headstart. When Switch has "regular" weeks people talk about how its gonna fall of a cliff...

The point is that the Switch looks pretty normal sales wise when it has these down weeks. January might not be the best example, we'll see in February. But most doom evidence is pretty premature. Im open to the idea Switch will fall off though.

This being an NPD thread... I'm going to assume you are only talking about NA.

Don't know why anyone would say or think NS sales will fall off a cliff though. Like there is nothing to indicate that it will.

Only platform we can confidently say that about for is XB1. Hell, this marks the first time since the console launched that its sales haven't fallen off a cliff shortly after the holiday season. 

And I don't know who these 'people' are..... but being that this is VGC I'm gonna assume this is one of those times when the opinion of one becomes the voice of all.

To be fair only person that really pushed that narrative is @quickrick, so nothing really strange just wishful thinking. :)
