"That system is expected to ship 2 million units before the fiscal year ends in March, Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima said in remarks accompanying the earnings"

That's from October, I have been out of the loop the last couple of weeks incase something else came to light however, but Nintendo forecasted 2 Million Switches shipped before the end of March.

Forecast doesn't equal the amount they're going to ship it's a prediction they give to investors, if they sell out day one another shipment will be sent that week and they can then tell their investors they sold more than expected, they gave a low amount to begin with to not inflate investor expectations.

You need to produce it first. If they planned 2 millions sales, they won't be able to sell 4 millions. Maybe 3M if they planned some additionnal stocks...
