The Wii U is next-gen. The fact that anyone ever questioned that is sad.

The fact that Nintendo has left it open for questioning two generations in a row is sad.

Do companies actually come out and tell us that these are their next-gen consoles? I would think us consumers could tell on our own. Then again, people think 3DS and Wii U are the exact same thing as DS and Wii.
