Not surprising. The Switch is mainly targeted to children and with toys being hot Christmas gifts, it’s a no brainer that parents would chose it over consoles more marketed to adults. Also the Xbox regularly outsells the ps4 during the holidays. Bundles, offers, discounts, and a great selection of software make it an attractive choice.
Nice try, but switch marketing is primarily targeted toward's young adults.
I don't take this place serious. The Lems do, and that makes it funny. Xbox is the easiest hornets nest to kick out of all the consoles for some reason.
Anyway, don't count with a discount.
So I am guessing PSVR sales no longer count from what you are saying. How many times have they discounted that device? All sales count no matter how they get them. That mad cow disease is really screwing you man.
Do you see another console VR device on the market? I'm talking about a similar-priced console getting slightly ahead of another on NPD by having to dump its price against it by a hundred bucks for two weeks. It don't count. And you can't tell me how it's fair, either. Sorry, Xbox. Even when you get ahead, you still lose. ?
When a tweet gets your knickers in a knot to the point where you need to make a SW thread for it, tells everyone that you take this place way too seriously lol.
Oh that's rich coming from Mr. "I disappeared for two weeks to dox someone's gaming habits". LOL! You're the poster boy for needing some fresh air. LOL!

Who ever said that I was upset? When was that statement documented? All I said was that there was a lot of speculation in our debate, and that I only deal in facts in certain matters. If you got that "I was upset" from that, then SW is just the place for you.
And since we're dealing with facts the only thing that matters is that PS4's LTD is 3x Switch's, right? How convenient.
It is pretty much a fact that Switch sold the most in the US in 2018 though. It's "speculation" in the same sense that it's speculation that the sun will rise tomorrow.
I'm 33 and I love my Nintendo Switch and I'm so hook into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as we speak. In short, age doesn't matter when it comes to play games you find to be fun.

At this point who doesn't own a PS4/Xone?
@GameboyTroy still doesn't own a PS4
Neither do I. Nor will I at this rate.
I can tell you all now that you aren't missing much from not owning PS4 but for me, PS4 is the current-gen console I have at home and it's more then use for exclusives, it's my main media I have atm. If you have a gaming PC, you aren't missing not owning PS4 unless you care about exclusives of course.
Great numbers for Switch! You mean to tell me that Xbox One was $100 off for two weeks in December and barely outsold PS4 which had ZERO deals in Dec? The price cuts aren't working anymore. Yikes!
Mad cow disease is a terrible disease. Can someone send help for this poor guy. ROFL!
It's the truth. There's no reason why the Xbox One, having a better deal than the last month for much longer, shouldn't be WAY higher than both the PS4 and the previous numbers for its last month. Jesus, they may as well introduce the new one this year. LOL!
$100 cheaper, man! Shameful! This is gonna be BAD year for Xbox One at this rate.
LMAO but its you folks that say all the time "more power with no games is why nobody wants an X1; X1 is redundant; XboxDone"
Now a simple $100 price cut negates your usual points of its redundancy and having no games? LMAO That is some serious DAMAGE CONTROL bro. Pick a narrative, any narrative, folks! Flip 'em when ya need to!

I'm sorry, you can't claim any sort of victory when you had to do it costing a third less than your competition. No one wants this box until it's low enough to buy with food stamps. It's true.

Yes, sales no longer count for console when they've had a price cut temporary or not.

LOL! Xbox ain't nothin' but price cuts. And most months they still lose. This is the biggest price cut yet compared to the competition, and they can barely stay ahead. Wins don't count for Xbox when it has to be a whole 1/3 less. In the words of a certain orange president... SAD!

The X is $400 and we don't know which Xbox sold most.
And that's besides the point. You literally said "There's literally no reason" and yet every day in SW you Cows are always talking about there is no reason to buy an X1. Your story flips like a pancake.

Eh. A win is a win. December is an important month. I say, let people enjoy it.
The only word edgewise I have to say about it is that no one should pretend like the most powerful console everty ever is causing a resurgence when the real race is happening from both Sony and Microsoft with the Switch. These late-generation years are highlighting a race for bottom-dollar and it's a game that Sony simply isn't playing. It's good strategy all around. The thing is, let's not pretend "the best version of Red Dead Redemption" was half the warcry that "$300" actually was in all effect.

I agree. The X isnt nor is anything going to close any gap. LOL that's an idiotic thought.
But when you have a cow like Benji, who daily claims there's no reason to buy an X1 suddenly claim there is literally no reason the cheaper in price X1 shouldn't be soaring in sales its absolutely Damage Control. Its a complete contradiction of his usual mantra so as to downplay what may be a higher month in Dec. Pretty telling of how much someone takes Xbox existence to heart.

Are you still crying? You realize you're crying over rumors or projections, not actual numbers yet?
Nice to know sales no longer count for discounted consoles.
Im gonna laugh even harder if this rumor isnt even true. Benji got all fired up over something we don't know to be true LOL man that's an unhealthy emotional attachment to console wars
Oh if the X1 sells more on December than the PS4 it is a victory for lemmings but it will be a sort of poor man's consolation victory since it is only one month on one region for a relatively small amount (according to the rumor) and in a month where it got continually discounted vs the PS4 with no discounts. So yeah I guess for lems it is a super victory in contrast to their performance the rest of the gen but still lol. The real victory is for the sheep though.
@mandzilla: a certain poster said that RDR2 would have longer legs than any Nintendo game which would stop Switches momentum, that was around 2017. His backup was because of GTA 5's success. He called people names because he was dead set he was right, and mocked me saying that Pokemon and Smash wouldn't be sellers for so long

Nope. I gotta let 'em suck lemons. Lems can't enjoy this moment. LOL! But, yeah, that's the case. Xbox has been racing to the bottom this whole gen, and now they gotta take out the 4K hard drive this year so they can do another permanent price cut that they're still gonna take losses on. Xbox is in shambles.

ROFL I never take an L. I am a gamer and love each platform ROFL. All I do is win baby! And I still see you are crying my god! You are one of the biggest hypocrites on this forum and you do take this place way to serious like you are actually winning something with your shitty points. Have you not realized no one is backing you up because your points are completely shitty and you are getting all worked up over rumors. HAHA!
Remember 2 of my top 3 games of the year are Sony exclusives. ;)
How reliable is their track record? Congrats if Xbox One actually pulled a surprise, but I still have a hard time believing it. Those Spider-Man bundles were selling like crazy!
I would not get my hopes up too much by this report as it's not official. and last reports stated each had a great month with the lowest being 1.3 million.
Also that $199 deal on PS4 was insane and sold out like hotcakes. And as an Xbot that S deal was dog shit. The X deal however was awesome. And from a few retail biz people heard it cleared out all the their stock. So betting most of Xbox's sales came with the price drop on the X.
Well it would be pretty pathetic if it couldn't with Smash.
So you predicted that Switch would sell more than PS4 and Xbox One combined in December, that PS4 would come in last in December, and that Switch would beat PS4 by so much in the December NPD that it would end up as the top selling console of 2018? (And yes, if the estimates are correct that will happen, and it's on track to possibly sell more in a year than PS4 ever did, at least as far as the US goes if December is over 2.2 million.)
BTW, neither XB1 nor PS4 has ever sold over 2 million in December in the US.
(Just throwing in some info to counteract your downplaying. Good luck with that 45 million lifetime prediction for Switch btw.)
I can tell you all now that you aren't missing much from not owning PS4 but for me, PS4 is the current-gen console I have at home and it's more then use for exclusives, it's my main media I have atm. If you have a gaming PC, you aren't missing not owning PS4 unless you care about exclusives of course.
Since were at 2019, it's best to wait for PS5.
Yup, that is my plan, the PS5 will most likely be backwards compatitable, and there is only 2 games I want on the system that I can't already play on my gaming rig.
WTF?? You get a price cut and your sales dont count anymore.... the goal posts were just taken off the field now
When fanboys dont get their way they change the rules until it fits their narrative. Then if you try and use it against them they change the rules again until it fits there narrative. Just look at his response about PSVR and that shows you exactly what I am talking about.
Just like lemmings say exclusives do not matter and then you see what Nintendo did with the Switch with a Pokemon remake and Smash game.
How reliable is their track record? Congrats if Xbox One actually pulled a surprise, but I still have a hard time believing it. Those Spider-Man bundles were selling like crazy!
