^Hey Wiibox, the point of the thread was to solidify the idea that the Wii is not a half-gen system, it's a last gen system in terms of HW performance. Not only is that in the minds of some of us, but the whole Nintendo leadership supports the idea (hence the article).
At least now when we talk we don't have to second guess the idea ;)
In terms of gens, history tells the story of gens being birthed by the need for fundamental technological advancements in the system's ability to render images and compute in order to offer more complex gaming experiences. However, nowadays that has evolved into artificial gens being defined by marketing efforts and dedicated branding, such is the case with the Wii, which piggybacked on the real next-gen which were the PS3 and the 360.
