You're grasping at straws. The PS3 isn't really that much more powerful than the XBox 360. Slightly, probably, but not a XBox vs PS2 difference.  
Now, I didn't take the Dreamcast in account, but even if I did, I'd advise you to go get your eyes checked.

Sure, the leap is smaller from N64 to the Dreamcast, but it is gigantic compared to what the Wii U is compared to the PS3.

Here's a quick reminder:

Among the N64's best:

 

Among the Dreamcast's best:

 

 

It's not even comparable.  The leap between the 2 was the "normal" gen leap.

You still don't get it. Why are you showing me the Dreamcast's best? Have we seen the Wii U's best? Show me a Dreamcast launch title.

I don't see what the power difference between PS3 and 360 has to do with my argument at all.


I just want to jump in and say that Soul Calibur, the second example, was a Dreamcast launch title. I also want to point out that the Dreamcast's life was cut short so we never got to see it's full potential. The Dreamcast has some hardware advantages compared to the PS2, but the PS2 had some advantages as well. If the Dreamcast had lasted as long as the PS2 I believe it could have competed graphicaly with the best PS2 games. Sadly it never got the chance.
