And I got banned for saying the Wii U wasn't next gen....

It was obvious from it's load power consumption that it was not next gen aka on par with the next-box and PS4. Nice to have it verified from a different source though.

It is next gen. It is more powerful than the Xbox 360 and PS3. Was the PS2 not in the 6th generation, because it wasn't on par with the GameCube or Xbox? Generations are about what time they are released, not power.


1) How much more powerful than the 360 and PS3 is it?
1ii) Is there any game that shows this power difference?

2)If generation is to do with what time they are released then why is the PS3 super slim not next gen

3) How can a console be next-gen if it can't play next-gen games, as the OP states?

1) Not sure yet, but it will be more powerful.

1ii) The X trailer does, and more games shown at this E3 will. 

2) The PS3 super slim is a different version of the console, not a successor.

3) If you want to argue that it is not next gen until a game is released that looks better than every game from the 7th gen, that is reasonable.
