The Nintendo Switch was adjusted up due to the latest shipment figures. 

Ah clear, thanks Trunksy.



NS is 3m off the X1 and could very well surpass the SNES by the end of December.



Power matters, hence the Xbox X sales being better than Switch sales.

X1 really needs to be pulled from the market, it's embarrasing.



According to VGC data, Switch sold last year from 27 oct 2018 to end of the year 8'1M and PS4 did 6'7M. Switch just doing the same as last year will put Switch sales around 19M in 2019 and 48'5M lifetime. It seems really probable Switch, thanks to Lite at 200$, is going to reach 20M this year and end close to 50M lifetime by the end of the year. Impressive stuff. Will this be the peak year of Switch?? I still think so, but who knows...

As for PS4, if the holiday season follow the % drop of all the year, PS4 should sell around 5-5'5M in the same period, so it seems PS4 is going to sell around 14'5-15'0M in 2019 as expected. That will put PS4 sales around 106'5-107'0M sold to consumers lifetime. If PS5 launches in November 2020, PS4 should add another 10M by then, so we can start to get a clearer picture of where PS4 will end when it's all said and done.



So the extra $4 in taxes and volcano attacks didn't affect Switch sales in Japan as much as was thought?

They didn’t, as you can see ps4 sales are almost identical as previous weeks whilst switch sales increased.



So Switch did better than we thought, which was already pretty good. Great sales overall. PS4 got a boost cause of COD right ?
Next weeks are going to be good for Switch. Dunno what Nintendo will have in store for black friday and holidays but they already have strong lineup. Switch def going over 20 million this year, maybe the peak, but honestly and can keep going around the same numbers next year with other system sellers and a price cut.

They can start doing limited editions, which the first actual one is coming out this week for Pokemon if I'm not mistaken.
