Is it running current 8th gen games?
Is it using 8th gen technology?
Is it competing against 8th gen consoles exclusively?
Sounds like an 8th gen duck to me.

It really depends if you think that Nintendo is still part of the greater gaming industry or if they're doing their own thing apart from everyone else. You cannot have it both ways so you choose.

For me it is part of the 8th gen because of those aspects but still indirect competition (replacement product between it and PS/Xbox, doesn`t mater if primary or secondary system, but it doesn`t direct compete as there isn`t that many people that decides to skip PS/Xbox because of Switch and vice-versa, they were already decided on which side they preffered before hand).
