Will this be the last year PS4 outsells Switch?

Mario Tennis isn't doing a thing lol. It's not until Smash and Pokemon where Nintendo even have a foot through the door. I'll put it like this, PS4 has been sold out for much of May and it's continuing into June. GoW has had an unforseen effect on it's sales. It's winning May, it's definately winning June with the 'Days of Play' sale, completely canceling out any little effect Mario Tennis had for that month. And I see no reason Switch would win any other month of the year other than the ones Smash and Pokemon release in. And even then, if Smash hits September like many think, Sony has Spider-Man. PS4 won October 2017 despite Mario Oddysey, and it didn't even have an exclusive to compete.

I do hope you know that for a game to sells some systems, it doesn't need to be a 10+ million seller. While obviously not selling the most systems, games like Mario tennis, octopath, fire emblem, and yoshi will still push units. Assuming the ps4 has no big release for a month like July, I doubt see why the switch couldn't win, or atleast bring it close(around 20k)Switch won October btw, and Sony will only will September if they have a ps4 spider man edition(which I hope they do, I for sure will pick that up). 

The Switch did win October NPD you're right. 3DS beat PS4 as well, lol. But yeah, I do think Smash has the ability to give the Switch a win in whatever month it releases. But that doesn't guarantee a worldwide win especially where PS4 is concerned.

If you look at the weeks of last October on VGChartz the PS4 won every one by miles, other than the one Mario Odyssey released in. But a week later in November the PS4 took the crown by miles again. It's all these worldwide week wins that made the PS4 sell 7 million more than the Switch last year.

There is a chance Switch wins NPD in every month of the year going forward, but that doesn't mean it will win worldwide where Europe and RoW sales have their say.
