Nah, Switch has May. It's looks closer than it is due to lack of stock.

Would be horrible if a new) "hot" system can't outsell a almost 4 year old system in its first year.
I suspect switch will get this year easy against ps4 and xbox .
But then again who knows big releases+ pricecut could mean a lot.

Yeah, that depends on Switch stock issues and such as well. Once September rolls around and games like Destiny 2 and Red Dead and Mario Odyssey start coming out, there is going to be a big boost in sales for all systems, meaning that Switch could be outsold in those months on stock issues alone. It will be interesting to see, but I'm still very bullish on the Switch.

I was worried about the stock. PS4 + Slim + Pro > Switch.

Amazon monthly sales :
#17 Switch
#18 PS4
It looks close because it currently is. Reasons why dont matter, end of the day, only the sales.
So far it looks closer than April was.
If Switch doesn't outsell the ps4 in one of its worst months (April and May are generally really slow) that would mean awful things for the stock situation. PS4 generally does around 200k in its good May showings, so the Switch would have to be even more understocked than it was in April.

Exactly: until the Switch is readily available, we have to work with the data we have available.

It's unlikely that the PS4 is any closer than it was in April. Don't look at just the top-selling SKU:
April:
#4 Switch Gray
#11 PS4 Slim Uncharted
#71 Switch Neon
#100 PS4 Slim
May:
#17 Switch Gray
#18 PS4S Uncharted
#31 Switch Neon
#55 Switch Gray
#88 PS4 Pro
The top Switch Gray is down, but the Neon is significantly up, and now there's another Switch Gray all the way up at 55.
