Still a young generation, I'm sure there'll be some great games. I'm getting Fallout 4 day one, MGS pretty soon and Uncharted 4 next year. It's not all hopeless, but so far it feels underwhelming for me, Bloodborne is not my cup of tea and Titanfall and Destiny were both rather big letdowns.
That leaves annual franchises, remakes and the handful of Nintendo exclusives that we get every gen, not my idea of a fantastic generation so far.

"You don't like anything new and everything old is godlike" is a silly statement. What's been so fantastic about the 8th gen so far? And what's wrong with being critical of the direction the industry has taken?

Yes and PS4 has even more games because we get every month a japanese game. I like this gen, last gen was total trash after 2009

he is acting like gen 7 is even old. a gaming hipster wouldnt be saying gen 7 was great. 

Splatoon and Super Mario Maker are new, fresh and unique experiences we've never gotten before though. They really stand out, even among Nintendo exclusives. Much better than the new experiences we got last gen with Nintendo tbh (even if they were a lot more succesful, they weren't very durable, long lasting or good).

And still I'm buying new games, just bought mgs5 despite still playing gta5, and I haven't touched FC4, DA Inquisition, Bloodborne, Batman or Splatoon yet (Fun to see the kids play Splatoon though, one day I'll get a crack at it). I'm spending a lot more time per game this gen than last gen which isn't helping.
And next, Mario maker is a definite buy and I know I can't resist Fallout 4. That must be it though, well maybe Tearaway unfolded and Until dawn looks good too :(

For me it's the opposite right now when I have time to game I always need to decide if I should play planet side 2, ricket league, dark souls 2 or start the witcher 3 which I barely started and I have Metal gear solid 5 waiting for me on steam. I had a blast with shadow of mordor and far cry 4. Fallout 4 will be a must and I probably will get bloodborne if it's as good as dark souls 2.

PS4 only, and the backlog increases while the games just seem to get longer. I really did not expect to sink over 100 hours into GTA5 single player.

Well to be frank, the 3DS is already 4.5 years old at this point. Nintendo is starting to probably shift resources to the next console. As for the 3rd party support, I agree the Wii U got shafted in that regard but the 3DS has gotten pretty good support honestly. Keep in mind that we can really only rely on Japan for HH support though.

Western developers like Activision, Take Two, Ubisoft and so on have never really been big players in the HH market. Sure they might throw it a bone like when we got that GTA Chinatown Wars game on DS or that Rayman 2 port on 3DS, but other than that HH has always been a Japan-centric thing, In stark contrast to consoles these days which I see as being more Western-centered with the occasional Japanese game. 

This is one of the reasons why next generation, I'm only getting one console... and why it'll most likely be whatever Nintendo releases. I have the time to play them all, but I just don't want to. It's no fun when you are rushed to beat games like "holy shit, only 2 weeks left before the next game drops... must finish... must finish".

Nintendo have the best library for now, in my opinion anyway. I haven't played a lot Splatoon but it seems to feature quite a few things I would take issue with, I tried it a couple of weeks ago at work (one of the boys there is a Nintendo nut!), it seemed like decent entertainment but nothing near the level of Mario Kart, for instance. And the only online competitive shooters I play are TF2 and Battlefield 4, which have very little in common with Splatoon. Mario Maker is not my  cup of tea, level building and similar things just aren't my thing, despite loving world building in roleplaying games when I grew up.

And that's sort of my whole point; OP and many others seem to be swimming in titles they want, and I'm not. And that comes down to preference, games like Driveclub are off the map for me as well since I don't really like arcade racers.
To be fair; the PC hasn't been rife with super titles either so far during the 8th gen of consoles.

I'm not trying to be cool and I certainly don't hate everything new (in fact; The Witcher 3 slipped right into my top 5 games of all time) and love everything old (most old games are shit, but a huge backlog will have a growing number of classics, that cannot be denied). For me, personally, the 8th gen seems like a continuation of the 7th, for better and for worse, I also care little for the increased focus on exposure and sharing and online bells and whistles when what I'm usually looking for is a good single player experience.
