@PAOerfulone Good point. I'd definitely consider it a fair minimum to look for in the financial report. I've personally been hoping for them to have shipped about 5.70 million in Q4, so that would bring total Switch numbers to 151.74m at the end of 2024. Hopefully we're close! Seems at least likely that they shipped over 5m, with total cumulative being over 151m.

As often the shipment numbers are better than most expectations about the Switch, I won't be surprised if they announce at least 6M shipped and something like 152M or over that.

But then again, 146.04 (the last shipments announced) were sold according to VGChartz by end of November. December did 2.7M sales worldwide and as the shipments are usually around 2-2.5M more than the sales, then if we put 2 to 2.5M above those 2.7M we get to a range of 4.7M to 5.2M. So it will be most likely anything around 151-152M range. Will there be enough demand for 9-10M more shipped units after that so that Switch pass the PS2 and it's confirmed number of 160.6M ?

Is that 160.6M even confirmed? As far as I know, the only real and confirmed thing about PS2's sales is the vague information that it sold more than 160M units.
