I actually agree with this.

By 2020, people will get 4k TVs for broadcasts in 4k, and by then, a new console will be needed to showcase that.

That seems like a really good time to launch a new console.

I'm under the impression that Switch will be the start of a new console gen. If I'm correct, that would mean the PS5 will be three years late to the party. Just my take.

huh? nothing to do when going with a new 4k console is smart or not.

I never used the word gen, above. I said a new console.

The switch isnt a "part" of the same console gen as the Xbox One and PS4.

It doesnt play the game games. Nintendo is doing its own thing, with a hybrid.

So it doesnt make sense to lump them together, and go "its a 9th gen system 3 years early".

 

Anyways the switch will be on the market competeing against the PS4 & XB1.

That doesnt make it a new gen started early, that makes it late to the party.
