I just looked numbes and they are:

[NSW] 850k
[PS4] 1650k
[XB1] 1350k

So 800k is still not nearly a million units, 950k would be nearly million units.

thats  the closest prediction and not official. according to john harker it did over 2.5x october like i said he uses exact numbers or very close so i expect switch real numbers to be 760k. those numbers are just my prediction i could be over 100k on switch and still won.  

In any case closest prediction is around 800k not nearly 1m difference in favour of PS4 compared to Switch.

i'm changing my prediction. it looks like switch sold around 1.4 million for December, that shouldn't really beat ps4.

LMAO, you had PS4 at 1.25 million and Switch at 1.35 million in your last prediction, what makes you think that now PS4 will win with Switch being at least 1.4 million?

 

Also, "around" 1.4 million is not even correct. Since you like to have Switch as low as possible in November , you should know that the less it sold in November, the more it sold in December, because the 1.4 million come from 4.8 million - LT sales of November.

 

If you have 760k for November, then:

4.8 million - 3.373.000 (Switch sales using 760k in Nov) = you have over 1.427 million in December. But, most important, it's OVER 4.8 million.

Over mean it sold minimum 4.8 million.  So, yeah........... is not around 1.4 million

they said over 2.6 million for October it was over by 10k. I'm pretty sure if nintedo was the best selling console in December they would have stated it.
