Teh new Toyota Camaree is not next-gen becuz it does not goes ten times as fast as the 2007 model!
EDIT: Posting my point from the last page here...
Technically, a new generation of any technical device is just the successor to the previous generation that includes some major upgrade, improvement, or overhaul from the previous 'generation'. The Wii is well more than twice as powerful as it's predecessor (if you go based only on clock speeds, your argument is very shallow. Memory architecture, more texture & pixel pipelines, removed bottlenecks, etc, all play a very important role in overall speed), is far more efficient power-wise, included built in WiFi, and improved case design vs it's predecessor. The Wii also revolutionized console controls as we know them. If that's not a jump that justifies it being a 'next gen' compared to it's predecessor, I don't know what is.
I don't see your logic here. Not even remotely.
