It should be mentioned that these are shipment numbers and unlike Switch and Wii the Wii U was heavily overshipped at first due to Nintendo overestimating the demand for the Wii U. Looking at sold through numbers of the Wii U it didn't sell through 3 million units of those shipments till June 2013 almost 6 months after it's release. Of course though Wii and Switch would be much much closer to those shipment numbers due to their more extremely high demand causing very high sell through rates of every shipment and therefore have shortages and problems finding any consoles.
