When will the Switch pass 160M?

They should continue to sell if for another 4-5 years. 

Like looking at 5/6 year old ... a Switch 2 is massively overkill for a kid in that age range, what do they need a system that expensive for with graphics that high end with $70+ games. 

Switch 1 makes a lot more sense for young gamers getting their first dedicated gaming hardware and then as they get older they can graduate up into the Switch 2.

Switch 1 should be $249.99 and the Lite should be $179.99, and games should be $39.99-$49.99 a pop digital ... it would easily hit 160 with no fuss. 

Looking at Nintendo's track record they don't seem to keep production of their previous consoles for more than a year or so after the release of their new console, so if they were to follow suit, then the original Switch doesn't have much time left, and all that remains are the ones that are left in stock.

But it would be stupid to stop producing their entry-level handheld Switch Lite (affordable, easier to hold for younger kids with small hands) before they can offer a similar sized handheld version of the Switch 2. Then they lose a whole consumer segment until they can offer a "Switch 2 Lite".

And with the current RAM crisis it can take longer than expected until they put 12 GB RAM into a $249 - $299 "Switch 2 Lite" instead of putting the same amount of RAM into a $499 Switch 2.
