All the older generation was defined by power/graphics.

8-bit era
16-bit era
32/64-bit era

All because you a have a big gap in power/graphics... that's make a generation... that's how the generation are defined.

The very fact that you have to write "32/64-bit era" demonstrates the problem with your claim. Why isn't the N64 considered to be a generation beyond the Playstation?

The N64 had a CPU that could handle 125 MIPS, plus a GPU capable of 100 MFLOPS. The PS had no GPU, and its CPU could only handle 30 MIPS.

So why is the N64 and PS considered to be in the same generation?
