The arrival of the Genesis launched around the peak of NES sales in the US.  It didn't cut into NES sales, and their was a lot of overlap between the two with millions owning both.  The Genesis did not compete with the NES.  The SNES on the other hand....

The arrival of the PS1 launched while the SNES was still selling strong.  It didn't cut into SNES sales and there was a lot of overlap between the two with millions owning both.  The PS1 did not compete with the SNES.  The N64 on the other hand....

The arrival of the XBox360 launched while the PS2 was still selling strong.  It didn't cut into PS2 sales and there was a lot of overlap between the two with millions owning both.  The XBox360 did not compete with the PS2.  The PS3 on the other hand....

The arrival of the Switch launched while the PS4 was still selling strong.  It didn't cut into PS4 sales and there was a lot of overlap between the two with millions owning both.  The Switch did not compete with the PS4.  The PS5 on the other hand....

One of the most absurd comparisons I've seen on this forum, would be the same as comparing the Nintendo DS with the Playstation 3. Nintendo started to focus on the portable market, definitely the Ps5 will not affect the sales of the Switch, especially in Japan and the US.
It's like seeing faces and objects in the clouds and thinking they are real, clearly forcing a pattern with the Switch.  

One of the most hyperbolic comments I've seen on the forum.  Switch can clearly be used as a home console.  That is why it applies.
