How is this even a question or a topic up for debate? It's a 9th generation console.

It's up for debate because if Nintendo were to release NX2 (or whatever) right around the time of the PS5 and XB2, would Nintendo just be a generation ahead of the competition?

That could happen, in the third generation Atari had both the Atari 7800 and Atari XEGS counting towards that generations.
And the Sega 32X Sega Saturn are both part of the Fifth generation.

The NX will be the first console in the 9th Generation, it doesn't have to be the only nintendo console.
