According to the WSJ, Nintendo has raised shipment levels for the Switch from 8 million (which was always a bit on the low side) to 16 million for the April 2017-March 2018 fiscal year. I can't confirm this for sure so take with a grain of salt until Nintendo says it officially. 

Wait, so does that mean that they're aiming to ship 16m for the next fiscal year alone without taking March 2017 sales numbers into consideration?

They planned to produce 8m from March 2017. until March 2018, now they planning 16m for same time.

People need to realise that 16m doesn't mean they aiming to sold all 16m but also to prevent stock issues like currently ones.
