"over the course of the year" could likely mean consoles sold in 2017, which would line up pretty well with every other outlet reported

Yea it probably means that buts it would still be over tracked by a huge amount, around 800k i think.

Mote like ~350k.

Another company said the Switch sold around 14 milliond by the end of the year. Why this company would be more trustworthy than others ?

Since when is a difference of 380K "hugely over-tracked" lol? Also as someone above me said, they undertracked PS4 in 2016 by 400K.

More like, where did they take their numbers from ?

Wouldn't trust them that much. They were off on PS4 in 2016 by 400k.

That's about how much they were off the previous year for PS4. Which honestly is impressive if you think about it. Since sony released their sell through before their report was finalized. Sony pressed released on Jan 4th. They release sometime in March.
