Well duh, having a much bigger install base and a big amount of good games to choose does that naturally. Just compare the weekly chartz here and you'll see that while the Switch ain't too far behind in hardware compared to the PS4, the latter still sells 2.5 times the amount of games each week due to it's much bigger install base and wide array of games. Even with a big release, the Switch sells much less software than the PS4 in a week. The chart you posted is only software, not hardware, and yet Nintendo dosn't look like it's too far behind, indicating that the Switch ain't too far behind in hardware sales

The problem is that, without actual figures, it's impossible to make comparisons. We know that Switch beat the PS4 sales at launch (roughly 45k vs 37k), but beyond that, we don't know any other numbers, at least as far as I remember.

We've heard/read that Switch was selling better than Wii, that it had already beaten the XboxOne total in Spain or that PS4 had crossed the 2 million mark, but how that translates into software sales remains to be seen.

For all we know, the difference betweem the first PS4 games and the first Switch game could be 2x, 3x time higher if not more.

I agree on that, just saying that having that many games in the top 10 is an indication that Switch may be higher than expected, not that it is.
