There is nothing to clean up. NX is 9th gen and only new consoles from competitors can be 9th gen consoles too, new models of existing hardware can't. Just use a brain cell or two.

...Are you trolling? I'm getting mixed readings from my troll detector atm.

Some people feel generations should be defined largely by the strength of the hardware, but so far it's had more to do with timing. The Nintendo consoles have fallen out of sync with the other two, so it complicates things to a degree. The two upgraded consoles can't be considered a new generation, but the NX, both in power and timing, matches them almost perfectly. It's difficult, then, to suggest that the 9th generation should start with the Nx when these three seem so perfectly tied to one another in the two most important ways.

8.5 definitely has my vote lol

hahahaha, two imaginary new models of existing consoles aren't a new generation no matter what their hardware. NX is a new console, from a new gen no matter it's hardware but we don't know about the hardware of any of the 3 machines.
