| Kyuu said: Excellent for PS4 and X1. Not looking particularly good for Switch. Weren't people not long ago saying it will sell as many units as Nintendo can produce and that the only thing stopping it from destroying PS4 were supply issues? Well, that's what you get when you ignore surplus.. Yeah, sure, it didn't have any big releases in February (ignoring Bayonetta...which suddenly doesn't exist again!!) but.. that's like Nintendo's trademark. Portability/hybrid, lower price tag (launch aligned) and Nintendo's software alone may not be enough to surpass PS4 even in the US. This takes into account the specs disparity between Switch and competitors (will get bigger when PS5 hits), and the relatively low interest of the playerbase in third party games. Amazon and online stores in general are heavily Switch biased, both in hardware and software it seems (I figured that would be the case since when Adobe Digital Insights had the Switch dominating the Black Friday period). Amazon had Bayonetta and several Switch games destroying Monster Hunter World, a far cry from the actual numbers. |
Another doomsday Switch post, they're a dime a dozen these days...
