Is Nintendo switch (or NS) the start of Gen 9?

I look at gen markers as whenever there is hardware that is incompatible with the hardware it's replacing. So if all the switch games are playable on the wiiU then it's still Gen 8. If you can't play all the NS games on the wiiU then the NS is nintendos 9th generation console

You can't play all DSi games on the DS, you can't play all new 3DS games on the 3DS... so DSi + new 3DS were new gens? ;)

that will be where the .5 desigbation comes into play.
