I admit, with such a long stretch without any big games, I thought they'd be a couple weeks in May and June where Switch lost the top spot.

Now Mario Maker's here, and with the stacked lineup for the rest of the year, PS4 will need a price cut to score any weeks at #1.
  1. Why would switch lose the top spot when the other consoles also aren't getting any big game releases.
  2. I think it's fair to say that there s no way (as it should be expected) that in its 6th year the PS4 should be outselling the switch at $299. Yes, it needs a price drop. That it's even still keeping the gap respectable is an achievement.
  3. And why is everyone forgetting that the PS4/XB1 are currently almost years old? If you guys really want to compare sales... compare them to those consoles 3rd years on the market.

Because PS4 gets big games more regularly than Switch does, basically. Between Smash and Mario Maker 2, a gap of nearly 7 month, Switch had no system-selling games. Hence I thought it'd momentum would suffer more than it has.
