Those are great charts as always, subscribed!

How about a comparison between 2023 Switch and 2010 DS?

2.8M and 3.3M are not so far away one from another. So if Switch starts to fall behind 3DS'14, I will change it to DS'10.

However overall for the year I also think Switch will be more closer to the DS'2.8M than 3DS'3.3M at the end.

Those holidays numbers will be though call for Switch this year.

Momotaro has been one of the breakout hits of the generation in Japan, outselling even some big first party Nintendo games, and the new one seems to be continuing the trend. 

Also, Mario Wonder joins the million sellers in Japan club.

I seem to remember you also predicted 3.5 million early in the year, which we're passed now, but to be fair, the Switch moves in mysterious ways and has proven remarkably tricky to predict.

I predicted 3.5M in late last year, when this year didn't even started.

Once we get to around spring maybe, and we all were blown out of the Switch stronger than normal start for it's 7th year in japan, many people changed their predictions, including me. So I refer to this one.

I also remeber you predicting it above 4.5M to 4.7M/4.8M if I am not mistaken. And if Switch don't get big holiday boost in the sort of 200k weekly, I can't see it reaching that.

You literally said this in April 2023, so yes you were certainly sticking to your 3.5 million prediction well into 2023. I would say you even lowered your prediction, considering you said closer to the 2.8 for DS than 3.3 for 3DS.
