It still has great games coming to it and as you said it, even the DS sold around 7 millions after the 3DS. Thing is i don't think if the 3DS was successful the DS would have sold way less. So if the Switch 2 has a successful launch, i don't think it will stop the Switch of selling anothing 6-8 millions in 2-3 years

As said the DS was selling higher than the Switch is now when the 3ds came. We can assume thar the Switch with the same level of sales drop would sell less.

But who tells you that the Switch will drop like the DS did? From 2023-2024 Switch went from 17,97 to 15,70 million.

IF we compare the Switch to the DS launch aligned (its 8th fiscal year on the market). The DS sold 5,10 million units. The Switch sold close to that the last 2 quaters ALONE!! The FY after (2012/13) the DS sold 0,12 million and 0,03 million in its final FY (2014/15). Thats just for better understanding. The Switch won't sell less than 5,10 million this FY. I think its fairly obvious that the Switch will sell more this FY (maybe even next quater alone) than the DS did in it's final 3 FYs combined. I do not see the Switch under 155 million LTD and thats only IF Nintendo cancels MP4B, Pokémon Z-A, Prof. Layton, not doing Gen 10 cross gen (RUMOR!), no price cut, basically giving the Switch a PSVita/ WiiU treatement post sucessor launch and that won't happen.
