Really doubt that Switch will get a successor so soon. Why would Nintendo kill the Switch so soon at the height of it's success, that just makes no sense.

No sens ? It would just make the 8th generation 9 years for Nintendo (2012-2021), which is really fine.

I count the Wii U and Switch as separate Gens (I count Wii U as 7.5 Gen, a bit like I count One X and Pro as 8.5. The Switch I consider 8.5 too, as I count only the 3DS as 7.5 Gen) since they are fundamentally different. Different mediums, different hardware base, different everything in fact. Wii U has so much more in common with the Wii than the Switch.

In other words, for me, the current Gen for Nintendo has only started in 2017. But I consider the whole notion of Console generations as flawed since the 90's (where would you fit the 32X? The 3DO? Philips CDi? NEC SuperGraphX? They all belong in between Gen 4 and 5 and in neither of those two)
