If the issue of generation was simply determined by dates of manufacture, it would be cut and dry which console was in which generation and this thread wouldn't even exist. I say it goes by what games appear on each console to determine generation. The switch has Valkyria Chronicles 4, Dragon Quest XI, etc. just like PS4 and/or Xbone do. WiiU had Ninja Gaiden 3, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, etc. just like PS3 and Xbox 360 did. Dreamcast had Skies of Arcadia, Evolution, etc. just like Gamecube did. Dead or Alive 2, Crazy Taxi, Shenmue 2, Space Channel 5 Part II, etc. also appeared on Dreamcast as well as PS2 or Xbox.

First off, you are confusing me stating that the Dreamcast never actually faced the original Xbox as a marketplace competitor, with me saying that the Dreamcast belongs in the previous gen of consoles. I never said that. I just acknowledged that the Dreamcast as a product was discontinued long before (9 months announced, 7 months actual) the first original Xbox was on a store shelf for sale. Also, the games anaology isn't as cut and dry as you'd like it to be. New consoles often share the same library as the consoles that preceded it for the first couple of years of its lifespan, and again with the consoles that succeed it during the last couple of years of its lifespan.
