If Switch is in the 65-70m range at the same point that 3DS was 52m with ~33% of lifetime sales coming after that point (like 3DS) than it will be right there with Wii give or take a few million.

Im not saying this will happen, just that its possible.

It is definitely possible, but you gotta remember 3DS doesn't have a direct successor. It has an indirect successor in the Switch, and the sales impact really shows, but it still has pretty strong sales all things considered due to no 4DS. The Switch is likely to have a successor within 5-6 years of its lifetime, and when successors come out is when most consoles taper off.

Well Nintendo did say they want to go longer than the typical 5-6 cycle for Switch, whether or not that happens remains to be seen, but if it does that could help with legs.
