When it comes to 3DS vs Switch it is extremely important to factor in that 3DS had a price cut in year one and a revision in year two. Switch is already outpacing 3DS by a decent margin in the West and that will only accelerate once Switch receives those. Same goes for Japan, 3DS has built up a healthy lead over Switch there but Switch will start to close the gap or at least prevent it from growing more once it gets those.

There is obviously a chance that something happens which causes Switch to end below 3DS but that's looking more and more unlikely as time goes on.

Well, when the console have launched quite bad and had a cut under 6m, it would be more natural to consider that the initial price was the wrong one (even more when it was above regular HH). But sure we can expect some effect on the pricecut and revision for Switch.
