The home page doesn't really call it 9th at all. It's current.
Switch is pretty hard to peg. As a handheld, it's Gen IX. It's so far beyond the capabilities of either the 3DS or Vita. But as a console, it seems more like yet another eighth-gen piece of Nintendo hardware. I personally call it 9th, but it's tough.
