Yea, it is interesting to see how many people have called the Switch a success after only 4 1/2 months of sales.  Granted, it has had a very good launch and is still in demand.  However,  we're going to have to wait a year or two to actually see where things settle before we can call it a success.  For all we know, sales could plummet next year and it could only go on to sell 20M-30M units.  I don't see that happening (I'm predicting it to match the 3DS's sales), but you never know what the future brings.  Especially when it comes to the HH/mobile market. 

Hell, a lot didn't think mobile would hurt the HH market so much, but it did.  Sony sold so few Vitas, they dropped out of the market.  And even without a strong competitor, the 3DS is only going to do 1/2 the sales of the DS.  Maybe even less than 1/2.

Soooo... let's wait to call the device a success until it sold 100M. Did you had the same patience with PS4? I think we should wait, sales could die down fast on that too.

Do what?  Yes, let's compare a console that has been out for over 3 1/2 years, and has proven itself, to one that hasn't even been out for 6 months.  If the PS4 had dropped off a cliff in a year or two, then yea, we could say it is a failure.  Since it didn't, and is still currently ahead of the PS2, we can say it's a big success.  For the Switch, the only thing we can say for sure is that it is having a great launch window.  If after a year or two it is still selling well, with little to no sign of decline, then it will be a success.  If it drops off a cliff and, say, only sells half of the 3DS, then it was not.

Sorry mate but launch window passed about 3 months ago we're about 6 months in now.

According to your definition of launch window.  But, even if you want to say it is no longer in the launch window, it doesn't change what I said. We have no idea how the Switch will perform in a year from now. Or two years. Or three. I wouldn't really get too cocky, otherwise you may be the one eating crow in a year or two, like many of us in here had to.
