My apologies then, I thought I recalled you predicting lower and no 3.5 million wasn't pessimistic at all. That was very reasonable and Switch just had an unexpected larger year which could be very well due to some purchases from consumers outside Japan. As for your wouldn't reach 160 million, dude you predicted worse than that. It may or may not reach 160 million but it'll be closer to 160 than your original prediction. I think it was around 130 million. You telling me all you said was under 160 million? 

I have made many predictions over the years.

At launch I predicted ~90m.

In 2021 that is indeed 130m.

In 2023 less than 150m.

Ok, not bad. Don't think anyone expected this run before launch. I personally predicted 100 million at launch because I never believed in a 3DS successor and after the pandemic my predictions moved up gradually as well. Unfortunately I think it will fall short of 160 million but go over 155 million. So in other words, Nintendo and PS fans will argue for eternity about which one sold more.
