Yeah. Switch ended 2019 at 52.5M, so 60M LTD without Covid is completely unrealistic.Sorry for the late reply to your comment, but my rebuttal was your what if scenario of Covid never happening, the Switch would've only sold 60-90 million units, which I very much disagree with. It most definitely wouldn't be over 140 million units, but I'm still of the belief that the Switch would reach over 110 mil units at most.
In a similar timeframe, 3DS was at 42.7M and Wii U was at 10.7M (53.4M total). And even though the 3DS was frontloaded and in decline at that point while the Wii U was dead, they still sold 89M combined. No way the Switch, which was still peaking, wouldn't have crossed 100M at least.
And the Switch sales curve was basically identical to the PS4's for the 3 years before the pandemic aside from launching in different months. The PS4 sold almost 120M and it would be closer to 130M had Sony not kill it for a faster transitios's sake. So, 110~130M seems like a better range for the what-if-no-covid.
