Xbox has too far of a lead. According to top industry analysts, Switch is only on track to sell 8 million this year. If Nintendo only does this for 2.5 years, by my calcoolations, that's only 32 million Switch units sold against Xbox One's... I dunno... 50-55 million units? To be conservative!

It's on track but the Switch could break the 300k per week threshold when Smash and Pokemon arrive thus considerably upping that 8 million forecast to maybe 15 mill. If Mario Tennis was enough for the Switch to hover around 200k units I would think Smash Bros will sell more units.

According to their numbers, Xbox One would have to sell 20.5 million units this year to be at 56 million by end of 2018. Which would top PS4's best single year in doing so. With Xbox One selling a whopping 83 units in Japan per week, that sounds totally like a legit possibility. Yeah, okay....
