And did he made up that a lot of people expected or predicted that Switch would outsell PS4 in 2018?

Probably not (I was expecting that too) but everyone here knows at least how forecast works, and how it's always shipped since they can't really know precisely sold-through number. 

Yes we do know. From what I remember Sony have exceeded forecast every single year of PS4 (with sales usually very close to shipment after they had regular 1-3M in channel) while Nintendo had on 3DS and WiiU overestimated on the forecast. I don't remember seeing the Switch forecast to see how they have done on the first year, but on this one seems like they were a little to high (and a lot of people here have said it on the very occasion as well).
