Switch is gen 9, because you can't use Wii U discs on it. It's so easy. Don't argue with power, because Wii was next gen although it was technically a Gamecube in a new case. Don't argue with lifetime or success of Wii U, because Dreamcast was next gen and replaced the unsuccessful Sega Saturn after 4 years. Dreamcast also launched between PS1 and PS2, but it is counted as gen 6 (PS2), because it is a successor of a previous system. Just like Switch. Nothing else to say.

OP: PS5 will win November, Switch will win December. It really depends on stock of systems, which will sell more. I guess Switch should sell most this holiday.
