Oh the launch month too right?

Basically the ps4 is doomed.  It's now the underdog again.  I love supporting the under dog. 

1) That 2018 release date for Kingdom Hearts III is highly doubtful. It's been 4 and half years since they revealed the game and we know next to nothing about it except that it will have Toy Story. Since this is Square Enix and Nomura we're talking about, I'll believe that 2018 release when I see it. 
2) If Animal Crossing comes out next year, then no, PS4 will NOT have the biggest Japanese game next year. Not. Even. Close. The best selling KH game in Japan, the first game, did 1.49 million on the PS2, which had an install base of well over 23 million in Japan. Animal Crossing: New Leaf is at 4.64 million AND COUNTING. 
3) You clearly must not have been paying attention to my 3rd point. The Switch hardware sells itself, being able to play console quality games whereever and whenver you want is a feature that ANY gamer, casual or dedicated, will be interested in. It has already replaced the 3DS, not just as the #1 King in Japan, but Nintendo handheld owners are naturally migrating towards it. Plus, it's best selling region is in the U.S. where its supply is beginning to catch up to demand. 

It doesn't have RDR2 (for now), but it doesn't need it, nor does it need Pokemon to keep up and build upon the momentum in 2018. They just need to keep a steady and consistent stream of 1st and 3rd party titles coming for it AND raise the stock and supply to meet demand and it'll continue to rise in sales, no problem.

"In September, the Nintendo Switch system was once again the top-selling current-generation console hardware, according to the NPD Group, which tracks video game sales in the United States."

This sounds like NPD announcing this news, not Nintendo...

Oh ok, fair enough.

Time for Sony to pack and go home.

Wow pls stop. Switch is doing well and to top it off those games will be 2mil sellers

Animal Crossing sells 10- 15 million.Smash sells 10-15 millions.FE Fates in all likelyhood sold more than 3 millions, so FE 2018 could reach 5 millions.Oddyssey will sell 10-15 millions.Yoshi, Kirby and Octopath are smaller projects that are meant to atract fans of that genre and maintain the momentum going.And even then, they could sell 1 or 2 million lifetime, which is nothing to scuff at.Nintendo could also come with new projects too.

Look, I am also excited with the PS4 lineup next year(I NEED TO PLAY KH III) but downplaing the Switch like that is just silly.

NPD covers the entire month though if Im not mistaken.that 50k is just for the first week.

Blatantly false, many companies have said that their games have met their goals. I'm not even including Indie's.

And my dude, looking at this comment and all of your other comments: You really have an anti-Nintendo bias. It's very obvious. The extreme downvoting you got in that article should give you a hint. Take my advice, be more fair and balanced (and a little more informed).
