Shouldn’t we be adding wiiu numbers in there too?  I mean it is a home console rather than a handheld and it released closer to ps4s release than switch did

I would put them in too since it's the Wii U is like you said on the PS4/One generation but it seems people who are running this website think otherwise :-|

I share your opinion, we should count both Switch and WiiU, they are respectively gen 8 round 1 and 2.

I always repeat : there won't be any Switch Pro because the Switch is already the "Wii U pro" of the gen 8th, but this opinion makes people quickly excited here.
Prepare for the counter argument : the name is different, the games are not compatible between the two consoles......But they are the fucking same improved lol. You just have to pay them twice, a detail.

Nintendo will release in 2021 a gen 9th hybrid console which will be as powerfull as the base PS4 and this will compete against PS5 and next XBOX.

Metroid P4 will be one of the main launch title and he was rebooted for this reason.

I am ready for the 3 days banishement, go for it.

I’m so sorry, but this is a horrible opinion

PS4 is more similar to the PS3 than Switch is to the Wii U. PS4 is PS3 Pro confirmed?

Edit: Actually never mind, this is a dumb thing to argue lol. They're both new consoles and that's the point.

Yeah I was doing something quite dumb that I do too often, the "I understand you're joking but I'm going to argue your point anyways"

Didn't know if you were completely joking or just half joking. Either way, it's just dumb to say Switch is just an upgraded Wii U, even if it takes a lot of tips from it.

I do think as you do, the Switch is for me a new try for this generation. There is no reason a company can't release a new device within the same generation.
