Forums - Sales - Switch vs Ps4 - Who will win 2017 WW

So Nintendo would have to produce and sell around 13-14 million more Switch untis from nown until the end of the year for that to happen. I mean i can't see the PS4 doing less than 16 million this year. So that means the Switch would have to do around 17 million. I am not sure about that being done so I will go with the PS4.

Because of inflated review scores proven by Disagea 5 & Thumper. PS games don't get the luxury of 'soft' reviews.

No, that can easily be explained by those games having less reviews because they're not new. The more reviews, the lower the score, usually. Plus they're now portable, which makes them superior to the PS4 versions. 

Anyway, I was talking about Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It took PS4 years to get games like that. Nintendo already delivered in the first couple of months. Super Mario Odyssey will just be another big scorer for Nintendo this year. 

Well, one could say having The Last of us remastered and GTA V again very quick would be something similar at least. 



New numbers added, 22 of April and the Switch beats PS4 by 50.000 units... in a low week, next week will show Mario Kart sales...
Still think PS4 will win?

Switch should "win" this

I would assume the PS4 should win this year, because it has two extra months (although january and february aren't the most important months saleswise, they still play a role), and the Switch has most likely not yet peaked, and while I do now believe the PS4 peaked last year, it will still do better than its first calendar year this year. The Switch still has a couple of years to grow and peak, so comparing the two consoles in the current timeframe is misleading. A better comparison would be to compare the PS4's first calendar year with this year for the Switch (If we assume the added benefit of the Switch launching will make up for the PS4's January and february 2014).

The PS4 in 2014 did 14.3 million as per Sony's own figures (sell-through, not shipped). This doesn't seem an insurmountable number for the Switch if they can get their production up and running.



Now the NS has come, the number game becomes a lot more fun on VGC .

Heck, i'm going with the Switch. Nintendo, drop Pokemon stars with enough supply and victory will be yours.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

Because a low week is one anticipating a big release the following week, right?

 

Fact remains that a brand new console still experiencing the "new product" sales figures is struggling back and forth with a 3+ year old console.
