I did some research, the top selling musician of all time in Japan is someone called Hikaru Utada, and Switch has not only outsold her top album several times over, but her entire discography.

(How’s THAT for an obscure reference?)

She's the singer of Kingdom Hearts main themes. I believe she's somewhat famous among JRPG fans 

Though I don't think we should look this way, Switch is a piece of hardware. We needed to compare with things like "number of microsystems sold" or something in those lines 

I think a more interesting comparison would be the best selling album vs the best selling game

Animal Crossing sold 7.9 million copies (physical only) and likely 9+ with digital included
