Sony shipped 20 million in the Fiscal year from April 2016-March 2017.

Nintendo is forcasting 20 million in the fiscal year from April 2018-March 2019.

PS4 NPD April 2016-175k
PS4 Media Create April 2016-92k
US+Japan April 2016-267k

NSW NPD April 2018-171k
NSW Media Create April 2018-162k
US+Japan April 2018-333k

Europe/Rest of the World probably give PS4 a slight overall lead but nothing overwhelming. Just shows how silly it is to base fiscal year shipments off of the sales of a single month.

Right, that's why I went with global percentage since Japan would be an extremely skewed region. Europe is the highest selling region for the PS4 so to ignore it leads to misleading data such as your numbers above.

I didnt ignore it, i mentioned it in my post, i said Europe/ROW puts PS4 in the lead but its not going to be by a huge margin.

Using last years percentages is flawed since we can see that its not holding true for this year. Last year USA made up 37% of WW sales and japan about 25% but in April sales in those regions were almost identical.
