So... yeah, here's the thing... 

It's fine to not be hyped for the next gen. I'm honestly not.

It's also fine to really like the Switch. I do.

What's not fine is to make a topic that is about next generation gaming when what you really want to do is talk about how the Switch is so much better than what Microsoft and Sony are doing. That's baiting, and it's not cool. And the initial mention of the Switch, and this response, sort of make it seem like that's what you're trying to do. 

So, since Nintendo is not releasing a new console in the near future, let's keep the conversation focused on the companies that are. Otherwise, topic's probably going to get locked.

Well, I was considering the Switch as part of the next gen based on this poll...

https://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread/242996/poll-is-switch-a-9th-gen-console/1/#10

So I think comparing systems is completely on topic, wasn't baiting.

You have 2 companies focused on an arms race and the third focused on something different.

So overall, no, I haven't been impressed with what is the "next gen" focus of 2/3rd's (if not more) of the gaming industry.

No, you obviously didn't think the switch was part of the next gen, since your topic stated you were not excited for the next gen and you were going to buy Switch games and accessories instead. Then you edited the topic to include the Switch as a next gen console. 

And now you continue to bring it up :-/ Which is like... exactly what baiting is... So again, just focus on the next gen consoles that this topic was obviously about. PM me if you have an issue with that, because people are actually engaged in discussion, and this is derailing it.
