If the switch did 1.2m and the PS4 1m..... isnt it doing like 80% of the Switch's sales?
Surely that counts for something? abit better than non-existance.

And of those 50 maybe 10-15 clear 10k units sold the first week, no? |
Perhaps but thats not much different from the first 6 months of the year now is it?

I mean how about we look at how its been doing for the last few months rather than how it did in late Jan-early Feb?
PS4 sold more in weeks 1-6 than it has in weeks 7-27, it WAS doing well, its not anymore.

thats the year to date numbers though.... I know right now its being outsold by large amounts.
However the fact remains that currently for the year, its sitting at 80% of the Switch sales.
Calling it non-existant is a over exaggeration of epic scale.

But hes talking about now, not 5-6 months ago.
Switch outsold it by more than double this week, last month and last quarter.
Nothing innacurate about his comment.

Mario Party as well
But thats the thing about hardware that people want with a bunch of evergreens, it doesnt need big games every week to maintain momentum.
Switch has not had a whole lot of big hitters this year yet sales have remained quite stable from week 2-27.

Stable yes, but only to the total of a little over 1.25 million. So if the Switch continues at the same pace until week 42 it'll be just barely under 2 million YTD.
So with 10 weeks to go it'd need to sell a little over 2 million units to reach 4 million this year. 200k average for 10 weeks... it's possible, but I'm not sure why some people are acting like it'd be a walk in the park.

We are replying to you questioning whether or not Switch will remain ahead of last year with the Splatoon 2 boost, i said it only needs to do 42k/week until week 42 to remain ahead, idk why you decided to change the discussion to something neither of us were ever talking about.

Because it's a discussion worth having when you are considering the Switch's first 6 months this year as 'stable' and I'm showing math that shows that, while stable, the Switch isn't really in the best position as its current pace.
