| OlfinBedwere said: I thought the original Switch was considered part of "Gen 8.5" with the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X? That being the case, wouldn't the Switch 2 be in a "Gen 9.5" with the PS5 Pro and any upgraded Series X that Microsoft might come up with? |
I suggested before on this forum that it would make more sense if the cohorts for video game hardware was about 2-4 years instead 5-8 years.
Shoot, even the first 3rd gen to first 4th gen hardware is only about 4 years.
But using the generation metric, I would say Switch 2 is 10th generation.
Game Boy: 4th Gen
Game Boy Color: 5th Gen
Game Boy Advance 6th Gen
DS/DSi: 7th Gen
3DS/2DS/New 3DS/New 2DS: 8th Gen
Switch: 9th Gen
Switch 2: 10th Gen
