Now that we're halfway through the year, let's do some math.

At this point last year, the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch sold through 38.9812223%, 32.06302907%, and 29.71417668% of their final 2018 totals respectively.
If those same percentages hold for this year, these would be the projected final yearly totals for all three systems in 2019:

PlayStation 4 - 13,444,532
Xbox One - 4,922,161
Nintendo Switch - 20,424,830

Sony needs to give the PS4 a price cut NOW! RIGHT NOW! There's nothing Microsoft can do for the Xbox One that will make it's situation any better. And the Switch Lite just threw a monkey wrench into how the Switch will turn out, there's no telling at the moment if it'll be lower or higher than the number I have projected here, that's the most interesting thing to watch for.

Why cut price to keep up with the switch this late in the gen? They gonna break 100+ million regardless and they better off making the extra revenue at the higher price while still selling reasonable well with all the competition.
