Will this be the last year PS4 outsells Switch?

Have you been around to witness the several times Sony provides official figures and VGC turns out to be off by a million or more? How is that not sufficient reason to disregard VGC data?

When I have witnessed VGC data being wrong it was the PS4 being undertracked. So if anything, the current gap is likely larger than it is since VGC has routinely undertracked the PS4. So in that case, the data and the inaccuracy of the data goes even further against the idea that the Switch is closer to the PS4 than the numbers show.

Several times, VGC has overtracked the PS4, and it has also undertracked it. Hence further showing VGC's unreliability. If you've only seen the PS4 being undertracked you haven't been paying attention - the last time Sony gave us numbers (73.6 million at the end of 2017), VGC's figures had to be adjusted down by 500k (and that was despite VGC data at the time being not having reached the end of the year - VGC had literally only tracked one week ahead of the previous announcement of 70.6 million.)

So with only one weeks worth of data from the last official data point, VGC had managed to overtrack by half a million. So your claim that VGC only ever undertracks the PS4? Yeah, complete bollocks.
