One does not simply release two consoles per generation.

Wii U was just a system that accidentally made it's way here from an alternate dimension. The gaming industry there isn't going as well as it is here. They never got the Switch

The Switch primarily competed with eighth gen consoles in the first half of its lifespan, and it's primarily be competing with ninth gen consoles in the second half.

Switch 2 is probably dropping in 2024.

This!

And the Sony PlayStation 5 is gen 10 because of how far advanced it is over the Xbox.

Sony always wins, baby!

Honestly, at this point, it's probably better to consider Nintendo systems as being their own separate little category. Because a) they're not trying to compete with Sony and Microsoft directly, b) they're clearly a gen or two behind as far as pure technical capabilities and c) the Switch being a console/handheld hybrid muddies the waters a bit
