I understand your dreams, but I think PS4 will win everywhere apart from Japan, which is the smallest and least important market nowdays.

 And Europe, well, Sony Land for ever, without any competition.

He is right thought, US was always strongest market for Nintendo same like Europe was for Sony, Switch has good chances beating PS4 in US at end, for now they are selling very similar in US for same time period.

But he`s not right. He actually couldn't be more wrong if he tried. And you will be very wrong too especially with a claim like that.

Since the PS1 nintendo has never won the US market. The only exception to this was with the PS3/Wii generation and even then it didn't win NA. The 360 did. So what claim exactly does anyone have to say NA is its strongest market? Absolutely none. Especially liken it t sonys dominance in EU? Ridiculous.

Sony has NEVER not won the EU market. From the PS1 all the way to the PS4. 

Sony has won the NA market 3 times out of 4 and when it lost it it lost it t the XB not nintendo. 

So really how or n what grounds is NA nintendos strongest market the same way EU is sonys strongest market when in 4 generations nintendo has never won in NA or EU? 

The simple truth of the matter is that Japan is nintendos best claim for a strongest market and even that is debatable because its obvious japan is home console resistant and prefer their handhelds. Case in point the wii only beating the PS3 by 2M in japan and japan only account for 12M f the Wiis 100M sales.
