Don nailed it. No, Switch is not the only 9th gen platform. Series S/X and PS5 will be part of that.

Being viable and being the best selling hardware is not the same. Viable just means a platform doing well enough.

I think we agree Series S's sales potential grows with a bigger price disparity to PS5. It needs to be like $200 cheaper to really get people looking at Series S and MS would have to demonstrate its still very capable hardware.

Any product sales potential increases with a bigger price disparity over its competition. And it doesnt need to be $200 cheaper for people to start looking at it.

Don nailed nothing because I KNOW (not think) the switch is the only 9th gen system.

AFAIK, Switch isn't really considered in any gen as we know. And even if someone puts it in a certain gen, it is always gen 8 (because it is the present gen and Switch competes with gen 8 consoles). But to be honest, IMO Switch is a console that probably kills off gen talk for good.
