Atari does not consider Wii Next Gen?

Well the Wii is not next-gen, no next-gen hardware, no next-gen specs whatsoever...when Nintendo fans have to constantly defend their console as being "next-gen"...then you KNOW it's not seen by anyone else but yourself, as "next-gen" lol.

And thank god btw, Atari can focus on making this game optimal for PS3, then 360. Even for cell shading it looks smoother and sleeker then the last budokai3. I've been a huge fan of those goofy DBZ:Budokai games, so im really lookin forward to layin back and trainin' up Vegeta for some online play.

Of course Wii isn't next gen. It's current gen just like 360 and PS3, people need to wrap their heads around this.

But the fact that fanboys have deluded themselves into thinking that there's a such thing as "next gen" specs is pretty hilarious. Seriously, you have to be pretty desperate to try and change the definition of "next gen" from the timeframe of release to some imaginary requirement like "next gen specs" that has no real meaning and varies from fanboy to fanboy. Are people that afraid of the Wii that they have to act like jealous school children on the playground, warping reality and terms to just create a special club to alienate that one kid they're so envious of?
