I do think Switch will outsell the DS, but it will be close.  Probably in the 35m range +/- 2m.  3DS + Vita is about 31m and they just need to take a few extra million from the PS4 (instead of it going to PS5) and they're there.  (And I'll count the Wii U numbers as overlap between the systems.)

Switch is selling like crazy in Japan, and yet they are still not providing nearly enough.  That means Switch sales are going to be high in Japan next year too.  Projected sales for Switch look something like this:

FY	DS	3DS	Switch	Switch FY
1	2.12	1.06	0.6	2017
2	4.78	4.79	3.78	2018
3	9.12	5.69	3.85	2019
4	6.36	4.35	5.21	2020
5	4.01	3.07	7	2021
6	4.01	2.36	6	2022
7	2.35	1.99	4.5	2023
8	0.23	1.39	3	2024
9	0.01	0.48	0.5	2025
10		0.09	0.46	2026
11+		0.08	0.1	2027
Total	32.99	25.35	35

What numbers are those? Nintendo shipments?

Yeah, I used shipments by fiscal year.
