xbox was 499$, i don't think switch will out sell xbox in the US. |
And Wii U was also $299 same like Switch and Switch again sold 4.5x better than Wii U.
Train wreck said: I guess the thing I find odd is that the first February for the likes of the Xbox 1, PS4, Wii, Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U, did not have 11 months worth of software behind it, Switch on the other hand has Zelda, Mario, Mario Kart, Splatoon and other high attached rate games, it should have blown the others and the record out of the water. |
Well we can say same thing now for PS4 and XB1, they are 3+ years more on market than Switch and they have incomparible bigger lineup of games in any case, so buy your point they would need to blow away Switch sales every month, but some how that isnt case. :)
But if you relly want, compare this numbers with second february for PS4/XB1.
Fact is that January-February are always slower months, and that Switch has good sales and its keep momentum despite has almost nothing from releases in January-February.

exactly why i see switch losing momentum. people don't realize third party games wont really sell switch consoles, they already have a established audience. |
Again, you dont have any reason to think that Switch is loosing momentum, Switch sold better 4 week february than it did in 5-week January, and despite didnt had almost nothing in Janaury-February period. No, actual people don't realise that 3rd party games are selling quite good on Switch, and that handheld mode is game changer for some people so they can play some 3rd party games despite they are availble on PS4/XB1/PC.

yup, switch will probably be behind 200k or more in april npd, when compared to switch 2017 numbers. |
We dont know that, Switch is curently at 550k, in April and March we can expect at least at around 300k for each month, that would mean around 1.1-1.2m with April numbers, and with that number that would be on pair with last year March-April, and offcourse from April sales will go in favour of Switch because last year had huge stock problems.

ps4 has done around 906k so it would be on par with switch launch ytd. |
Offcourse PS4 done that when it had launch in November, are you relly comparing November with March sales!? :D

labo will flop, and switch will flat line this year, and that's if nintendo drops the price during the holidays |
Labo will flop, same like Switch sales fail of a cliff. :D
