| xMetroid said: Well to me we will also have to redefine generation cause with consoles like PS4 pro and Xbox One X being a much more bigger upgrade in power than Switch is. So that argument is invalid. Switch released between the PS4 pro and the Xbox X. To me its Nintendo's revision of the Wii U except its a new system cause it bombed. I dont consider Switch as a newly generation but i dont see it dying before being 6 years old.
I just think the generations are a bit fudged up now with all these new upgrades and stuff. Wouldn't be surprise if next consoles you can had built in power or upgrade it in some way. |
Nintendo's revision of the Wii U? So if we apply that logic to the Wii whose power was practically the same as the Gamecube then we can assume that the Wii is 6th generation. Honestly this argument wouldn't work since the Switch is the successor to the 3DS as well. It is a big step up from that system. The only reason people see it as messed up is because people only see it as a successor to the Wii U. In the real world it is a 3DS and Wii U successor. The Switch-3DS release gap (6 years) is the exact time as the DS-3DS release gap (6 years). Also expect Sony and Microsoft to release a new system by the end of 2020. Maybe even 2019.
