April will reveal the accuracy of these Europe sales. But I am excited to see how close to 20mil they get. At the vrve least, Japan and US are considerably up year over year and last year was no joke in terms of sales either

Probably around 18-18.5M shipped in the current FY, which ends on March 31.

I'm more interested into what Nintendo is expecting in sales for the next FY. Will it be 20M again? More, or even less?

No way in hell is it gonna be less. I'm guessing they'll say 21 mil. And with this shaping up to be probably the switch's best year, I won't be surprised if they shoot past that. I mean the packed summer, what they still haven't told us for E3, mario maker 2, pokemon and probably animal crossing, I see no way the switch sells less than 20mil. 

The switch is at 14.49mil and last q4 was 2.92mil, so this one could easily be 4mil and that would fit your estimate. On the off chance that it's the same, it's 17.5mil and on the off chance that it's really good, it can be 19.5mil. 20mil this year is highly improbable but next year, not getting it is.
