But if we're being realistic....thats a bit silly.

Switch should still have pretty healthy sales by the time it passes 100 million. It'll probably pass 100 million holidays 2022, so even if Switch 2 launches in 2023 there's no way Switch ain't hitting 100 million. If Switch 2 launches 2024 then a realistic target is 115+ million.

SW is at 54 million now iirc. It would need to sell 46 million in two years, completely impossible for your prediction. Its still up in the air if this year will be the peak.

The Switch still seems to have its best years to come, and will probably have 3+ years above 20 million units sold. It already have over 2.3k games, which is more games than all previous Nintendo consoles and very close to Xbox One games (2.4k) and PS4 games (2.5k games) despite being released for only 3 years. There is still yet to come and each new release makes the console more apealing than ever.

2017 was huge for PS4 because of the great exclusives it had to offer after 2016 and the launch of the Pro and the PS VR.

But Nintendo still has huge plans for the next 4 or 5 years, and not ready to give up this machine.
