You sure are onto something keep going. I'm not saying the games won't be there, what I'm saying is that they can't (unless we go for hyperboles that anything can be ported)

I've yet to see an 8th gen game that does something that wasn't possible on last-gen hardware, besides fancier graphics/animations and all. 

Depending on your level of pushing narratives almost nothing done in today games is impossible on PS1 level HW, it would just suck. But go there and port a 8th gen AAA Multiplatform for Switch (I already sniff the switch reveal trailer of the game that is not confirmed being used as evidence)

And how exactly is that related to being from one or another generation of consoles?

New Generations are brought because the older one wasn't capable of going forward SW wise, being it needs more power to advance. So if you label a console as 9th gen but it isn't capable of playing 8th gen level game then it's quite strange.
