If you were Nintendo and wanted to reach 161 million, how and what would you do?

At FY end 2023 (end of March 2023) Nintendo officially shipped 125.62mil. Switches. At that point, Nintendo predicted that they will ship 15mil. for FY2024. Ideally and likely, they will ship a bit more than predicted, probably ship a bit more than 1mil. more. So, we would then be close to 142mil. shipped at end of March 2024. From there, I remain with my 10mil. for FY2025 and we will end at 152mil. shipped at end of March 2025. If things will go smooth, another 6mil. are possible for FY2026 and we will be at 158mil. at end of March 2026. In such a scenario, it will be relatively easy then to sell some more and break the 161mil. This would be my more optimistic scenario but not unrealistic at all.

Interesting but like if you were Shuntaro Furuwaka, what would you implement to make the Nintendo Switch more desirable to purchase? I do agree that FY2025 will have the goal of selling/shipping 10M.
I personally think that Nintendo can easily sell more Nintendo Switch units in the next FY, at least from what the rumors say and statistics from past lifecycles, but I went for what I felt was midway from the more optimistic route and the more conservative route.
