That question is answered already, if they all released a new platform at the same time they wouldn't be the same gen because Switch 2 would be 10th gen, gens in how you and others are arguing in how they are defined were already absurd to begin with, they were never uniform to begin with it just appeared that way because companies were reacting to their competitor's moves. What you're seeing now is nothing new it's been happening since gaming's early days, traditional gens aren't dying out the industry has just come back round full circle. What further adds to this is that even if you were to argue PS4 and X1 and we went from that angle, Switch is still a new platform for the portable market as well succeeding another gen 8 platform and all of a sudden the PS4/X1 arguments become null and void because in the so called traditional sense of gens Switch follows that notion in the portable market hence why I look at it as what the platform is suceeding. |
How I and others are arguing? I've not presented any arguments at all, I just presented some hypethicals to better understand your own. As I said, I ultimately don't think it matters. I was just curious ^^
