I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that the Switch will beat the PS4.
IMO, I would rank it something like this:
SS: 136M+ PS2 and Nintendo DS
S: 101M-135M Wii, PS1, PS4, Gameboy
A: 71-100M 3DS, PSP, GBA, 360, PS3,
B: 46-70M SNES, Xbox One, NES
C: 26-45M Atari 2600, Sega Gen/Mega, N64
D: 11-25M Wii U, PSV, Gamecube, Xbox
E: 0-10M Everything else. Includes Turbografx, Intellivision, Gamegear, Saturn, Dreamcast, etc.
Personally I think E tier should be included as these consoles put a significant financial strain in most cases for the manufacturer and, in some cases, even caused their demise as a hardware manufacturer. And I think that jumping from 30 to 50 million between tiers is just too significant of a bump. Spreading this out by increments of 5 makes more sense. E is 10, D is 15, C is 20, B is 25, A is 30, S is 35, and SS is beyond. This allows for getting up to the next tier to be a more significant accomplishment every time. Going from B to A shouldn't be the same difficulty as going from A to S as it is in your chart IMO.

I don't see Nintendo selling another 80 million in 3 years unless there would be a big price drop.
If they manage to keep current sales numbers they could hit 150 million and that's my prediction. I guess numbers will drop over time when the ps5 and xbox became in stock constantly as those will gather more interest. But on the other side switch will have some boosts over christmas.

It can be difficult to understand why the Switch is selling well. I hope this video helps.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6

Switch Will Be #1 All Time
Zelda Will Outsell Mario (Achieved)
How Much Will MH Rise sell?
My Bet With Metallox
This is now clearly going to be Switch by a large margin, only DS and PS2 at this point have any chance of staying above LT Switch sales and that now hinges on how the next two years go.
I still remember there were some users in this thread believing in artificial scarcity bullsh*t that was never proven right even in the past.

SS tier is for those fascist consoles that can prove their German ancestry back to 1800.
