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.

- Why would switch lose the top spot when the other consoles also aren't getting any big game releases.
- 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.
- 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.

1. It wouldn't.
2. Correct.
3. A quick look at year 3 sales aligned using the VGC tools will show you that Switch year 3 is slightly outpacing PS4 year 3. The PS4 was a beast, so even landing slightly below would mean the Switch is also a beast, let alone slightly ahead. At the end of the day, Switch sales are just plain impressive no matter what data you are trying to compare it to.
