Back in 2017-2019, cliff theorists generally claimed that soon Switch would reach a point where every Nintendo fan had one, and at that point it would suddenly stop selling.
At first this number was said to be represented by the 13.5 million sales of the Wii U, but when that threshold was quickly smashed, the goalposts were moved to the 75 million of the 3DS.

Around 2020, the narrative shifted to "PS5 and Xbox Series will kill the Switch", which has proven to be no more accurate, as we're nearly two years into the life of those systems now and the Switch is still coexisting comfortably with them.
