It's hard to properly compare Switch sales to other consoles as the Switch has been so heavily supply constrained for the past few months. We've had supply constraints with the Wii, DS and PS2 in Japan in the past but never so severely (as in, never has total weekly supply been so low for a platform). It'll be interesting to see where sales stabilise over the next months. The Switch is and will be a success in Japan but the question is: Will Nintendo deliver the wrong software, making the Switch stagnate at 15 million lifetime? Or will it be a 20 million seller like the 3DS? Or will it shoot into the stratosphere like the original DS and sell 30 million total?
