Doubt it.

Jan-March 2017, 2.74 million

April-June 2017, 1.96 million

Jan-June 2017-4.70 million

 

They need to ship 2.87 million to hit their fiscal goal and considering they have raised it twice already they should meet it.

As for April-June, it had heavy shortages last Spring hence the sub-2 million shipment which should easily be beaten this year.

 

My guess is Switch will ship ~6 million in the first half of 2018.

First half comparatively might be up but they haven't announced anything remotely as explosive as Mario Odyssey, Splatoon, Zelda and MK to actually have that momentum building into the holidays. This all depends on Labo which I'm not sure will be as impactful as Nintendo want it to be.

Well to be fair thats because they havent let us know what they have planned for the second half of this year but if Kimishima really expects to ship 20 million next fiscal year than its safe to assume they have something big up their sleeves.
