So while I will say the Switch is going to be a success, I'm not sure what to really expect from Switch's 2018 software sales. I've said 60-70 million and I don't expect any lower, more likely even higher. And I expect 60-70 million from Xbox One as well. Xbox did 64 million in 2015, Switch has that to beat.

 

Why do you expect Xbox One to do 60-70 million?

It did 55 million in 2017 (a decline from 2016) despite the release of a new Call of Duty, Assassin's Creed, Destiny 2, Star Wars Battlefront 2, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands and Forza.

What games are coming out for the Xbox One that would reverse the decline?

Honestly I don't know what Xbox will do this year. I think Black Ops 4, Red Dead, Battlefield V and Forza Horizon 4 will do bigger numbers on Xbox than all of those. I will guess it will be up YoY, it is already significantly up with hardware sales. Who knows though? I think 2017 was relatively weak for third party stuff. It was an exclusive dominated year.
