I believe they can but Nintendo almost never had the stock to surpass 100K in sales except for once with SMO and now they will have 6 weeks in a row while the West is also asking for more stock?

Shipments are going to increase by a significant margin. Absolute minimum for the holiday quarter is 6m globally, of which Japan should receive about 30%, so 1.7-2m.

Switch was at ~1.7m by the end of September, so even a conservative estimate should push it barely ahead of Wii U lifetime sales by the end of 2017.

6 million seems to low to achieve that target.

Last year the Xbox one sold 2.9 million alone in USA from  Oct/ December and must have shipped way more.

A 3 million Switch shipment for NA seems to low + 1 million for Japan + only 2 million for the rest of the world?
