What people failed to see here is, Sony needs to ship a free latest game like Spiderman with a huge price cut in order to win in a unit for this month while Switch takes the revenue.

December is looking very ugly for PS4 and probably will be in the last place behind XBX1

Ugly is an overstatement, even if its 3rd and sells like 800-900k in December, that is very good for a $300-400 console that is 5 years old.

PS4 December

2013-860k

2014-1065k

2015-1580k

2016-1570k

2017-1080k

2018-~850k

Nothing ugly about those numbers.

Ugly in comparison to competitors. For example, if Switch managed to sell 2 Million while PS4 only 1 Million - 900K.  

Nearly 1 Million difference is going to be nasty. 

It's like leading all the way from the start until the final lap in Mario Kart and getting blue shell a few millimeters away from the finish line.
