Spider-Man does whatever a spider can. Can a spider sell 2M+ consoles during a sales event? Stay tuned 4 more!

Stay level. Switch actually enters the black Friday arena this year. It will be up YoY eating up growth for both of it's competitors.

Depends on stock, as others have said. Sony will sell whatever they ship. I would love to see more than last year, but their forecast doesn't make that look very promising.

I would like to think that with Spider a Man and RDR2 bundles, Sony should easily sell around 1.8 million this Black Friday.

Considering they’ll have enough stock, Spidey will help them to beat last year imho.

Competition how? And how has said competition affected the PS4 sales all year round? The PS4 has still managed to win almost every single week in 2018 even with that competition you speak of.

So you really believe there aren't 2.5 people willing to buy the PS4 at $199 plus a free game? More power to you I guess.

Switch was also in the black friday arena last year. It has also been in the global arena all of 2018. And has only won globally 3 or so times in all of the weeks of 2018 so far ( and thats even arguable due to adjustments) so I really don't know or see what metric anyone will use to somehow suggest that a console that has managed to win all year so far will suddenly lose when its at its cheapest and with a free game.

Anyways to OP, as many have said already this is a stock matter. I am going to go with 1.5M. But if sony has enough stock I don't see 2M being unattainable. 

PS4 has been down YoY and from the NPD tracking thread thus far, it's very clear Pokemon, anticipation for smash and actual bf deals are going to be a big factor this year for the Switch. I fully expect ps4 to beat the Switch on the day though. I just don't expect growth.

Now we are talking about two different things.

One is competition. And I am saying that the same competition you speak of has been there all year round and it has not stopped the PS4 from winning nearly every single week thus far. So I don't see how it suddenly is going to be a je,factor now. You also cite some games and deals for the Switch.... the PS4 has its own games and deals too.

Two is growth and you talk about the PS4 being down this year. Well thats to be expected as its already sold over 80M consoles, is over 5 years old and still had an MSRP of $299. But now we are talking about it being cheaper than its ever been especially since its coming with a free game. I am not expecting it to suddenly sell better than last year overall but i at least expect it to have a better november this year than last year...... barring any stock issues that is.

If Sony supplied enough stock they would sell 2m+ for November NPD. Next year I really hope they go crazy and manufacture like 3m $199 bundles for November in the US. If TLOU2 is out by then I believe they will sell them all.

That's great, thank you for the information.
