I've seen your posts, you are not a nintendo fan. The hell you're talking about arbiters of gens or giving up or power? Time is the only thing that determines generations. No ifs, butts, opinions, console wars or anything.

I don't dick ride Nintendo, but I still consider myself a fan.

I was dismissing a comment that Switch kills the idea of generations.

If time is the only thing that determines generations, then Switch is 9th gen. Although, I don't really consider Switch a home console. Its specs are built for portability first.

Switch's release date is closer to Series X and PS5's release date than X1 and PS4.

Dreamcast (Japan) and OG Xbox were about three years apart. Both still 6th gen.

Your "consideration" doesnt change the fact swith is both porta le and home console.

Not only is that false, its also irrelevant. The ps4 and x1 didnt start the 8th gen, so the time between those and switch doesnt matter. First system.to come out a significant amount of time after the previous gen started will begin a new gen.

Switch came 4 years after wii u and ps5/xsx are coming 4 years after switch. So gen 9 for switch and 10 for the next consoles. This is just how it is and has no bearing in what system or games are better.
