At this point I'm not even sure if it will surpass Wii sales, let alone DS

If they make a Switch mini that is the size of a 2DS/3DS XL that you could actually fit in your pocket then it would easily pass Wii sales. It would have been nice to have it for release of Animal Crossing. Switch Lite might be a little more portable but I don't consider anything truly portable till I can put it in a pocket.

Agree. But also a new version of the original console with a more powerful hardware and battery might help a bit

I think both will come in due time. I expect 2021 for both, with a more powerful yet more efficient Tegra (probably based on a Quadcore Carmel Processor and Turing GTX GPU) for a "Pro"model and a downclocked version (to OG Switch portable performance) of that chip to be the basis of a Switch mini.

The Wii’s drop will be much worse than the Switch

Switch ain't too far behind, and next year the Wii will go from 300k weekly in January to 150k weekly in October. Switch may not reach those 300k, but will certainly stay above these 150k, and the Wii is only going further downhill from there.

DS was somewhat of a lightning in a bottle type phenom, especially in Japan where it just caught fire. So no I don't think Switch will outsell DS, especially given the hardware's slew of models and handheld-exclusive focus. Still, I do think it has a good shot of getting closer than most think. Its library is already ridiculous, and its portable nature/multiple models means that some will likely opt for multiple Switches in the household. You also have the price drop factor, which Nintendo hasn't even had to bust out yet. I could definitely see something like 125-140 million when it's all said and done.

It did surpass the wii after all.
People are ignoring some of the glaring problems with the Switch compared to the DS.
Problems with the Switch:
1. The Switch is a little spoiled
2. It’s kind of ditzy
3. A little too into its looks
4. Just a waitress
5. Chubby ankles
DS has glaring one problem.
1. It’s not Rachem
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Damn. Switch was just my type up until #5.
Hopefully Switch 2 will be a foot model. I'll buy two.
