Believe it or not, the 3DS had a YoY increase in its sixth year if I'm not mistaken; about 480,000 units over the previous year.  Not much, but an increase nonetheless - and that was the 3DS.  I'm not necessarily expecting the Switch to be up over last year, but I don't think sales will drop too much this year with Nintendo's continued support.

Wasn't it because of Pokémon Sun/Moon release coupled with the effect of the Pokémon Go craze ?

I don't remember but you're probably right, as it would explain the increase in shipments.  If the 3DS can exceed/remain flat with that, certainly the Switch could do it with a Zelda/2D Mario/Mario movie effect.
