I dont think it will be 9th gen, more like 8.5th gen.
How will NX fare in comparison to the PS4? | |||
Below in power | 297 | 32.21% | |
Equal power | 99 | 10.74% | |
More powerful | 108 | 11.71% | |
Very weak in comparison to PS4 | 67 | 7.27% | |
A little weaker | 128 | 13.88% | |
Very powerful in comparison to PS4 | 30 | 3.25% | |
A little more powerful | 106 | 11.50% | |
Like 2 WiiUs duct taped together | 87 | 9.44% | |
Total: | 922 |

Nintendo releases a console every 6 years with a 1 year overlap with the previous gen. It would be gen 9.

No, Nintendo usually release a home console every 5 years.

A gen does not end when the next one starts. It's 6 years. Gen 7 is still going because of the PS3 and 360 but it ended a while back for nintendo when it stopped supporting the wii. Which was a year after the wii u released.
The next nintendo console will release in 2017 and the wii u will be discontinued in 2018.

Like I wrote, Nintendo usually release their consoles around every 5 years, you can check facts on internet.
Next Nintendo hardware probably coming next year, we dont know is that home console.

NX is being revealed next year and that's the only thing known. Regardless if it's a handheld or console, 2016 is too early for a release for either. 2017 and 2018 are likely the years either could release in. You were right on the 5 years in between nintendo's consoles. I got it confused with how long the gen lasts for 'em.

Why is 2016 too early for either?

Going by nintendo's history of console and handheld releases, Nintendo for the most part follows a pattern or schedule. There's no reason for them to release hardware early. If they shorten their present hardware gen because of bad sales, it will only lower the percieved value in owning nintendo hardware.

Few months ago I thought new hardware will arrive in 2017 (I have not even considered 2018.), but after more different informations from multiple sources (last was Capcom announcement 2 games for NX), I think 2016. is very likely.

What trend are u using for handhelds? Gameboy went 12 years without a successor, GBA 3.5 years, DS 6.5 years, there is absolutely no way to predict when 3DS will get a successor based on previous generations.
Go back and look at previous console support from Nintendo after the 4th year. N64/GC/Wii each had a whopping 2-3 semi-major titles release in the 5th year, do u really think Wii U owners will be mad because they missed out in 2-3 games over the course of 1-2 years?
