Should NS and wiiU be both labeled as 8th generation?

No.The Switch is a 9th gen console.

but it belongs to the same generation as the PS4 / XB1......So its a 8th gen? imo.

Does it really though Dreamcast was out with the PS1 and N64 for two years before the PS2 arrived and 3 years before GC and Xbox it's still classed in the gen with the latter and its participation in the latter gen was very short. It's clear NS will be around long into the PS5/X4 era as well.

NS is a 9th gen platform as a successor to an 8th gen platform that's what it comes down to.
