It's gonna reach 141m very soon though. It won't be exactly 20m but will be close to that size.

It's 4 more months till DS finished it's last big holiday, it sold 2.3m in Sep&Oct, and 8m in Nov&Dec... Switch should manage ~4m during that time (down from 5.4m last year) so the gap will increase to around 16m IMO

After that DS has reasonable sales first 3 months of 2011 (almost 3m) so the gap will be essentially flat... then 3DS launched so sales continue to drop, so Switch will start to catch up but it will be very slow. It will catch up more significantly in Nov/Dec 2023 though assuming no successor launches... My guess is end of Dec  this year gap will be about 10 million.

Looking it over it will be a tad further away from 20m than I thought. Very impressive that the gap will never get that big.
