If I'm not mistaken, those are called 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation games on a same platform. I could be wrong. So it kind of proves the point that with progress comes the definition of a generation within a context.

But you say, that the new console-gen is needed, because the hardware of the old gen limited the games. You didn't answer, why the first games hitting a new console are at first mainly the same games as last gen and could in most cases be easily programmed for last-gen-platforms (and often are, as multiplats for last-gen and new-gen consoles). So it seems, the game-developer aren't really limited.

I'm not sure if you're being facetious. There's a bottleneck, at which point improvements are needed to obtain certain features needed for certain experiences. If not, a new console would have no purpose. The Wii or WiiU alternatives are artificial gens, they offer nothing that could not have been tacked on to the original consoles. I've talked about this with another poster earlier.
