Im based on 17 FY. We had 3 10+ million-ish potential games (MK8D, odyssey and splatoon) and Nintendo shipped 15 million switches. 

For now, in 18 we only have 1 (smash).

Of course momentum will keep it above 17, but if only smash among the 10+ million games(or no price cut), I hardly see 20M.

But if pokemon is ready, I give it to you.

But last year Switch had huge stock problem and Switch would sell even more whitout stock problems, this year Switch dont have those problems and only in Q1 of this calendar year with weak Q1 lineup Nintendo shipped 3m units, from late April through July lineup is much stronger (thats actualy Q1 of FY2018.).

Smash Bros will definitely not be only one huge system seller game in current FY 2018. lineup, they definitely have more announcements for FY 2018. I can bet that we definatly getting Pokemon or Animal Crossing (smaller chanches that we could have both in FY 2018.).

No, it doesn’t.

But it does, look at link, those all numbers for each hardware are shipped aka sold units at end.

shipped is sold for nintendo, but sold through = more sales for nintendo, because they would shipping way more, so there is a huge difference. as for the other comment last year nintendo could shipped 4 million easy they just didn't have the stock because of launch demand.
