the switch should end 2023 with around 135 million units globally it would have to sell another 23 million to pass the ps2. With Switch 2 coming in 2024 that seems difficult. I would like to know users' opinions

Probably not. 

The PS3 only sold about 6 million after 2013. According to the figures we have, PS4 was at 91 million at the end of 2018, and finished at 117ish. So, it probably sold 10 million at the absolute most after 2020, and probably a lot less. If Nintendo wanted to be aggressive about it, maybe they could do it. Drop the Switch lite to 150 or 100? That might help. But, I don't think they have much interest in doing that. I think they'd much rather you move on to the next. Sony had an interest in continuing to push the PS2, but that was a different market situation. 

I don't understand why they wouldn't want to lower the price of the Switch. That would seem to tap into the just about the only market they haven't been able to tap into yet (Those that are waiting for a price drop). And those people are going to need games to play on the system, which means they'd make more money.
