Nintendo started the 9th gen, what are you talking about?

And Nintendo launched the Switch when it did because their 8th gen console bombed harder than anything.They had to.

Probably they will start the 10th gen first and be in direct competition with the PS5/Scarlet, but thats just too soon to discuss.

Ya I assume we will see the same pattern going forward (as long as conventional consoles remain).

Nov 2013-PS4/XB0

Mar 2017-Switch

Nov 2020-PS5/XB4

2023/2024-Switch 2

2027-PS6/XB5

Etc.

Yeah, thats what is probably going to happen.
