With these figures, we can now officially confirm what we already know, the Switch is 4th best selling Nintendo system of all time and the 9th best selling system overall.

In terms of Nintendo systems, it now only trails the Nintendo DS (154.02 million) , Game Boy (118.69 million), and Wii (101.63 million) on their all-time list. It should pass the Wii as early as this holiday season - Right around Black Friday would be my first guess.

In terms of ALL systems, this new number puts it ~1.2 million from the Xbox 360 (85.80 million) by the end of March, it is now the 6th of May, so it more than likely already passed it and is now setting its sights on the PS3 (87.41 million). Then, after it passes the Wii at around Black Friday, the PS1 (102.5 million) will follow immediately afterwards.

If it maintains its current pace, the Nintendo Switch is set to become one of the top 5 best selling video game systems of all time and the 3rd best selling Nintendo system before the end of the year.
