The Switch outsold the Xbox 360 in the US in November. 

US Total Sales of the Top #3
NDS: 57.92M
PS2: 53.65
Switch: 47.26M

Switch needs to sell just shy of ~6M to outsell the PS2. Throughout this year the Switch has sold an average of ~300k (excluding holiday sales of November 2023).

I personally think that the sales for August, September and October are a more accurate representation of how much the Switch will be selling per month in 2024 (excluding holiday sales of November and December). Based on that assumption, the Switch will average ~200k per month.
If that trend continues it would take the Nintendo Switch 30 months to pass the PS2 in US sales.
(Obviously I'm forgetting about December 2023, with hope that November was the lower of the two months we should see Switch sell near ~800k. Then Switch only needs to sell for 28 months before passing the PS2 in US sales.)

*Edit*: Corrected Switch sales from Americas to USA and recalculated how long it would take to surpass based on the average
