Perhaps their brain power is too limited in order for it to make sense.

My brain power is fine thank you, there's no need to be insulting. All that i'm saying is that the notion that because the Nintendo Switch is 9th gen, it doesn't compete with 8th gen consoles, such as the PS4. I find that to be nonsense. The Switch is competing with the PS4 and the Xbox One. A new fictional gen doesn't automatically cancel out competition in the market right now.

^ Makes sense to me. The Switch is competing against 8th gen consoles and that's all that matters right now. Whether you want to call it 9th gen or not, it doesn't put it in some bubble on it's own.

I personally don't see any use in classing it in any gen right now. For all we know the PS5 won't come out until 2020 or later and a Switch sucessor could be out as early as 2022 meaning for the majority of the lifecycle of the Switch 2 a 10th gen console would be in the lifecycle of the 9th gen PS5.
