Define "next-gen."
Were Genesis and SNES not "next-gen" in 1990 because of the Neo-Geo? Were Saturn and PS1 not "next-gen" in 1996 because of the N64?
HD is not the definition of "next-gen." If you want to tell me Wii isn't an HD console, that's perfectly legitimate, but if Wii keeps selling at the pace it is, and PS3 keeps selling at the pace *it* is, I'm sure people of the future will consider Wii far more represetative of this generation than PS3.
So nyah-nyah, Wii is more next-gen than PS3 ![]()

EDIT
Soul, in respons to your edit, go look at the PS1/N64 hardware charts, both launch aligned and date aligned. Then tell me where your logic fits into that equation.
