Just snagged up a PS4 Elex collector's edition for $42.90 on amazon. The regular edition was 39.99, so an extra 3 bucks bought so much more. It's still low but not as low now, it's up to $46.
...to avoid getting banned for inactivity, I may have to resort to comments that are of a lower overall quality and or beneath my moral standards.

It's disingenious to portray pre-launch expectations as the same as expectations after 9-10 months of sales. There's a lot more clarity after almost a year of sales. You know if a system has struggled or if it's riding a wave of success, so it's quite straightforward to predict how things will continue. In 2017 we had Switch win 6 out of 9 NPDs it was avaiable in (December is still pending). Switch's losses came in a month of heavy supply constraints (May), a month with Gold and Silver Editions for the PS4 (June) and in Black Friday month (November, $199 PS4). Switch has one special win (launch month March), but the general trend was that in an ordinary month for all consoles, Switch comes out on top. This can be expected to continue in 2018 and Amazon should be a quite reliable indicator for sales. In the last four years there have been only one or two occasions where Amazon wasn't representative. |
Let's be honest, Nintendo consoles have been all over the place as of late. After a year or two of the Wii, people were calling it the PS2 killer. It was going take that crown. What happened? After 3 years it started nosediving and had to crawl past 100M, not even matching the PS1. The Wii U was going to be a big hit, it was the follow up to the Wii, after all. And it had a year of no competition. What happened? It failed to even hit 20M. Then, we had the great shrinkage in the handheld market, leading to the 3DS to only hit half of the DS, while Sony completely bowed out.
The point is no one knows. It could continue to do well and completely blow past the 3DS. It could start to lose steam in a couple of years, putting it around the 3DS in the end. Or it could start falling hard in a year or two, as casuals move on to something else. Personally, I think it's going to be the middle one, but who knows.

| quickrick said: i'm changing my prediction. it looks like switch sold around 1.4 million for December, that shouldn't really beat ps4. |
Sry, but what's point of prediction if you constantly changing your prediction, in that case predictions totally lose point. When you gave your prediction, than stick to that prediction like rest of us, not constantly changing it.

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 |
So I guess I was right when I wrote that Switch will sell around 1.5m. :)

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. |
They cant stated if they dont have results for PS4 and XB1, and statement that Switch is best selling console ever in first 10 months on market in US is definitely much stronger statement than they win December NPD.
quickrick said:
Yea that true by sony been selling over 1.5 million ps4 for the past 2 years i see no reason for the decline this year. |
Well this November PS4 had best deals until now and best selling November until now, so probably some people bought PS4 in November earlier than they would in December, so November BF deals could easily affected December sales for PS4. PS4 is most likly down MoM from November to December.

The Switch is the fashionable console at the moment, and likely for a long time. Both the PS4 and the XB1 now rely on bundles, price cuts and exclusives (or exclusive deals) to push numbers.
The PS5 Exists.
