Switch is actually outselling the PS4 atm in the US (the last week or so).... and I dont think PS4 even has any big title games to really help it next month?
Next month belongs to the Switch unless Sony comes in with a price cut or something.

Yeah, PS4 really dipped low this month. Last month it was almost always above 500 points, this month apart from the beginning it was under that mark all the time, and even dropping below 400 now. Meanwhile the Switch really started climbing after this E3, from around 400 last month to 450-500 points now. It's average is almost back to pre-E3 level while the PS4 is almost 100 points by now.

Another interesting point which I already eluded to in another thread is the ratio between XBO X and S models. I wanted to wait until Bestbuy updated to make sure it's correct, so here you are: The X seems to sell significantly better than the S now, S dropped out of the Top 100 on Amazon while just clinging in there at Gamestop. At Bestbuy there are 3 S Models ranking, but all of them behind the X model - and that's despite one of the S models is still 80$ off.

At this point I guess the ratio X to S is about 60% to 40%, if not even higher in favor of the X. This could also be the reason why Microsoft drops the price of the S so often: It just doesn't seem to sell anymore otherwise.
