PS4 and Switch dont effect each other, 

Great to see more people coming over to this way of thinking. I'd been arguing this from the day the Switch launched. Obviously there will be some cases where PS4 loses sales to Switch but in general the PS4 isn't hampered and visa versa. I've always said a gaming market with just Nintendo, Sony and PC would be ideal and all 3 would do very well.

Everyone expecting Swith to obliterate PS4 this holiday season because what happened in December last year.....,are understimating PS4 again..., like always. Last year was last year, it had fewer stock and their main bundle was the failure Battlefront II was, XB X just launched and it was the first holiday for Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 DX and Mario Odyssey. Now PS4 have RDR 2, COD BOPS 4, Spiderman, GOW, ....and it seems there is a lot more stock.

In my opinion PS4 is bound to have a record November NPD possibly around 2M sales, probably selling aroun 500k more than Switch that month and in December I expect PS4 way up YOY, so yes, Switch will win December because Smash and Pokemon but the difference won't be enough to surpass PS4. I won't be surprised if PS4 ends selling more NOV+DEC combined than Switch...

edit: And by the way, Switch won't reach 20M, not even close....Switch is no Wii. If it ends with 17M it will be a success.

They just never stop underestimating the ps4 do they. Year 5 it's still full steam ahead year 6 will be the same. It has sold well at 299 all year. The console could sell for the next 5 years if they wanted. Only thing stopping it is the ps5.

Even Sony itself underestimated PS4 this year, so nothing strange if some people also did. I think that Sony (and some people) didnt expect that GoW and Spiderman will be so strong and move so much systems, of course RDR2 will also have big effect during holiday season.

I mean they do in some degree, but we already saw that both PS4 and Switch can do great in same month, both PS4 and Switch will have great Holiday season in any case, saying that Switch will not do during Holiday season because PS4 Spiderman $199 bundle is wrong.

Wait a second. The Switch sold 12% less than last October!? It's losing momentum, guyz!!
Mr.GameCrazy said:

He'll be back this Friday. Hopefully, he won't freak out in the moderator thread over his ban like last time.

I'm sure he's making a proper come back with October NPD numbers out in the open, don't worry.
DonFerrari said:

Thanks... I expect truly amazing posts from his against this drop from Switch.
Miyamotoo said:

Yeah, its failing of the cliff. :D

 

C'mon guys. No need to taunt a banned user.

Normally, you're accusing him of taking threads off topic. Then why are you bringing him up and doing the same?

People accusing him for constantly downplaying Nintendo and Switch and being constantly negative about Switch sales (and that was basically only thing he was doing). He said that Switch sales will fail of a cliff after holiday season, and that become meme.

No one in this thread has said anything about Switch losing momentum or falling off a cliff.

There's no need for it be brought up constantly. It's time to let it go. He's admitted it was wrong, and it's been months. Stop it.

I dont think people will ever let go that, "failing of a cliff" become like meme.

Multiple people making fun of another user every week because of a terrible prediction that was made a year ago isn't funny. It's malicious. It doesn't matter if it's a "meme" it's needless taunting on a very frequent basis, and it's not done in good jest when many of the users doing it clearly don't like him.

But I never said PS4 will affect Switch. I often say Switch has no chance to beat the PS4 in a particular month but I never say Switch doesn't sell because of PS4.

It takes two to Tango. Well in this case he has many dance partners so I should probably think of another one.

He has certainly left his impression on many users around here. Even when he's banned just can't let him go. He's probably reading through this thread loving all the attention.
