Switch Q1 2018 being higher than PS4 Q1 2014 (910K).

Switch sold so far 552k, so it has to sell 358k in March NPD. Which mean it need an increase of 27% compared to February. It's looking tough but not impossible, usually an increase like this is not gonna happen, because February is a big month, and there is a big increase over January. However, when the increase is weak (30/40% increase only or less), March is usually gonna have a great increase or at least not a decrease, because February was weaker than expect.

 

A good example of this is Xbox one last year:

Usually Xbox one has an increase of >80% in February compared to January. However, last year the increase was only 36%, which is pretty low for his standard, and March saw an increase of 13%. There are also other examples of weak February compensate by a March increase, only problem is the 27% which is not low.

 

But we'll see, to be honest i always expected March to be stronger than February for Switch for many reasons, now we have to see how much better it'll be.

So, will you be deducting 1 week like Rick said you agreed to? If I was him, I would have added the PS4 supply issues and higher price point as factors to be consideredz

yup he agreed then he changed his mind after FEB results, lol.
