From the Wii, yes, but not compared to the PS3 or 360, therefore it's 7th gen, no?
If you don't compare all existing consoles to one another in terms of hardware, then how can you classify consoles which are not successors e.g. Xbox, Playstation etc?

No, the wii's competion was the X360 and PS3. Something that is explained in the OP. WiiU's competion will be the PS4 and the NeXbox. hence 8th generation. what is so hard to understand about all this?

Making an unsubstantiated claim doesn't give it truth.
The Wii was marketed at a different audience than the PS3 and 360 because the games were a) completely different and b) no multiplatform titles.
You are now just saying that a Ferrari and Dodge Ram are gunning for the same audience because they are both motor vehicles.

So are you telling me the wii was not competition to the X360 and the PS3? if so why did X360 adopt kinect and the PS3 move?
|
Market opportunity =/= competition.
They both saw an opportunity to get into another market and did so. That doesn't mean the core consoles are competing for the same market.
|
And games like Super Smash bros, Zelda, hell even Mad World was not aimed for gamers?
Just make whatever useless comment you want to. Im done and Im going to bed. You are just throwing out useless nonsense now and to say that the wii wasnt competion is pointless. Meanwhile Mario Kart Wii sells 30m and the wii out sells the X360 and PS3. Gooooodnight for the final time

Giving you quotes from Reggie hardly counts as "nonsense". However claiming things like the industry isn't split over the Wii U does count as nonsense:

The ford mondeo outsells Ferrari. Does Ferrari consider the Mondeo to be a challenger? xD
