Now on Sales again. Who is buying the Switch?

Let see the sales of Nintendo with Home Consoles (rounded numbers):

NES 62
SNES 49 - lost 13 million
N64 33 - lost 16 million
GC 22 - lost 11 million
Wii 102 - Bought by casuals and family a lot, sold at half the price than other consoles and introduced the controllers. Most hardcore gamers don´t like it.
Wii U 14 - lost 8 million from GC came back with the downward trend.

Gameboy 119
GB advance 81
Nintendo DS 155
Nintendo 3DS 74

Sony home consoles

PS1-102m

PS2-157m

PS3-87m

PS4-92m (growing)

 

Non-Nintendo handhelds

Atari Lynx-3m

TurboExpress-1.5m

GameGear-10.6m

Sega Nomad-2m

Neo Geo Pocket-2m

WonderSwan-3.5m

N Gage-3m

PSP-81m

Vita-16m

 

Who was buying PSP? I mean you can see every Sony home console sold over 85 million while no non-Nintendo handheld sold over 20 million. Clearly PSP would have to be more of a home console based on this.
