I'm not talking about PS5, but about PS4. I can't say anything about PS5 sales, but this year PS4 sales will get affected by the PS5 release that's for sure.
I see, sorry for the misunderstanding. But yeah, I was saying that PS4
will GET surpassed by Switch in time to come. Maybe not immediately, but in a year or two to come, possibly longer than that.. If it continues to be successful, then even PS5 might not surpass Switch's lifetime sales. But I don't know the future admittedly so I don't know. We'll see.
I'd bet serious money that SS will not surpass gen 1. I actually follow these data trends and aside Mario Maker under performing a bit I've been dead on. I still remember being made fun of here for stating Switch would outsell Wii U within a year and change and that MK8 would easily outsell the U version in no time when people questioned why they bothered porting it. SS will keep selling but it will slow down a lot and just become a normal good seller just like Smash from here. It will pace beyond 20 million but it's not gonna happen in like a month like some think.
It has the advantage of having the whole year and likely most of next to itself sure, but that isn't going to push it over 35 million lol.
Mmh, you do indeed have a good point. If it's really as you say, then we can only wait for the sales of Sword and Shield. Something may change in the future, it might be as you really said the truth. But I didn't necessarily say immediately, I did say that with time, as DLC comes, there may be small bursts of new sales; which did imply that it wouldn't surpass Gen 1 sales immediately. And as said before, there might likely not be a Ultra Sword and Shield versions or anything like that considering we got DLC. So, as I said before; We'll SEE about it in the future.
Also I just realized that my Neogaf premium member expires this year on November, not a new month like I thought. I'm really surprised honestly, yet happy.
