    How can the switch be a different console from last gen, current gen, and next gen? Those are literally the only generations it could be considered part of.

        Setting aside that the industry professionals definitely count it as current gen for sales metrics, that’s fuckin, irrelevant when the statement is about all three of last gen, current gen, and next gen. Whichever one you want to call the Switch part of, it’s the best selling console of that generation, so the statement that AMD sold chips the best selling console of that generation is false. Unless you want to make the claim the Switch is from 2006, they are incorrect.

          • switch sold 125 million by march 2023
          • ps4 and xbox one sold 117 + 58 million by september 2023
          • wii u, which had amd gpu, also sold 13.5 million by its discontinuation
