20-22.5 million. That's still crazy impressive sales for a console that is turning 4 next year. 2020 has been the hardware sales peak for the Switch though. I don't think Nintendo has the momentum to top it next year. But 20-22.5 million would still make it the second-best hardware units total for any year of the Switch.
Lifetime Sales Predictions
Switch: 161 million (was 73 million, then 96 million, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million, then 151 million, then 156 million)
PS5: 115 million (was 105 million) Xbox Series S/X: 48 million (was 60 million, then 67 million, then 57 million)
PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)
3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)

I tend lean to 20 - 22.5 Million Units sold, still don't know how many people own both Regular Switch and Switch Lite.
My guess is slightly above 25million.
It's hard to imagine NSW dropping more than 10% next year.

The massive Covid boost wont continue but how much will it dip, it will come down to whether covid created sales or simply pushed sales forward.
With Switch accelerating it's dominance in China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, while re-entering Brazil - you folks seriously expect it to be down 5 million units YoY?
Couple of factors:
2021 will fix some of these problems

Correction
People here are expecting it to be down 10 million* YoY
OK, last days to place or change your bet. I graphed the current bets for all three consoles (in three threads):
People see Switch above 17.5M apparently.
You can still change your bets until the year ends.
VGC says: 25,015,,809. So just barely into the >25M category.
I don't think payouts for this were triggered yet, can someone do that @axumblade @TruckOSaurus ? And sorry for the spamming of mentions...
