Actually, what you said makes it even better for Switch if we consider it came out on PS4’s peak. Like you said, it’s older than it, which actually should give it a big advantage over Switch which is still on its first year (remember Ps4’s first year? It was it’s worst sales wise). Not to mention they are the same price, like you said, while PS4 has 20x the amount of (cheaper) games and bundles.

Unless the Switch sold more than 340k, PS4's 1st January was actually better with stock issues.

271k/4 weeks, 67.75k/ week, if extrapolated to 5 weeks then it would be ~339k @$400.

Switch 5 weeks? 340k @ $300?

You mean... Jan 2014? And... what does a specific month has to do with what I said? I said the first year (12 months) were the worst for PS4. It just got better and better sales over time, which is usually the trend for a console. Doesn't make a difference if it sold more or less in one month, which it even didn't btw, when we're talking about a year.
