PS4 matching PS3 is realistic. Switch matching 3DS numbers is possible, but an unrealistic goal. If Switch gets to 20 million lifetime in Japan that's an amazing achievement. But it would be really difficult to predict where Switch ends up being all new systems are coming out in 2020. And we don't know when or what the next Switch revision will be. 

Possible by unrealistic.....isnt that a bit of an oxymoron?

Sort of but not. Its an unrealistic expectation. Why does the Switch success rely on beating 3DS? The Switch is already successful. If the Switch is ahead of PS4's install base by next year (which it will be) that to me is a success. So is it possible that Switch reaches 3DS Japan Install base? Sure. It isn't what I would project or expect though based on what I know right now.
