Wii was much closer to power to PS2/Xbox than to PS3/Xbox360, Wii U was much closer in power to PS3/Xbox360 than to PS4/XB1. Clearly power don't defy generations of console.

Wii U was definitely 8. gen console, and fact is that Switch is new generation of Nintendo console.

I never said it did, I was asking what his defintion of generation was to make it so that Switch is in a group with ps5, when from a power, software and time perspective it's closer to PS4.

Switch is nintendo's next generation system, but there's no logical reason to group it with PS5, and there's no reason to group it with other systems either.

Again, I gave you clear examples that power of console does dont effect on generations of consoles, so power in that matter is not important in any case.

Second, Switch is released 3.5 years after PS4, if we got PS5 in 2019/2020 it can actually be closer to PS4 in time frame. Only fact we know for now is that Switch is next Nintendo gen console, but we don't know if will Switch be considered part of PS4 or PS5 group, and I don't think that really matters.
