Nintendo Switch expected to release PS4 in 2019 – Game Rant

According to a press release published by the research firm Strategy Analytics, Nintendo Switch is far ahead of Sony's best-selling home console. According to forecasts, the switch business turnover is expected to reach 17.3 million, closely followed by the PS4 to 17.1 million. The Xbox One is expected to reach a little over 10 million sales.

If the predictions were true, it would be the first time that Nintendo has been in the top spot in hardware sales since 2009, when the Wii was sold superior to Sony and Microsoft. With the release of the highly anticipated Smash Bros. Ultimate By 2018, the Switch is expected to have considerable success with one of Nintendo's most famous franchises until the New Year.

Pursuing its financial success in 2018, Nintendo recorded record sales figures for the first Pokémon exclusive, Pokemon Let Go, which sold three million copies in its first week and has become the best-selling version of the console since the launch of the Switch in March 2017.

The work is not finished yet for Nintendo. The overall takeover of Sony, in terms of console usage, remains firm until 2019. Boasting a long history on Nintendo Switch and solid sales, the Sony home consoles represent more than half of the consoles currently in use, including 84% on PS4 and PS4 Pro.

In addition, Nintendo continues to aggressively fight the flight of Smash Bros. Ultimate content after the full game was illegally obtained and put online by hackers. The leaks have already resulted in strikes in the copyright and YouTube bans. However, Nintendo continues to seek to mitigate the consequences. Despite the leak of clips from the soundtrack and the revelation of the details of the story, the release of the exploited material has no impact on the game, including its release on December 7.
