Wii U 7.5 Gen confirmed! Just like Wii was a 6.5 Gen, Dreamcast a 5.5 gen, and 3DO and Jaguar 4.5 Gens. Expect the next Ninty console in late 2015 about the time when Wii U's sales realy fall off due to all the Top Third Party titles being 720 and PS4 exclusives!

Where's the evidence to this though?
If it's in th same situation as the Wii, why wouldn't live as long as the Wii, or any other Nintendo system for that matter?
What you're saying is what Pachter said about Wii HD, which didn't actually happen.

The evidence is in the line in the article that says in comparison to the PS4 and 720 specs it's definitely not a Next Gen console.
Because it's not going to sell like Wii. It will sell a lot more like the Gamecube than the Wii and the Gamecube was retired after ~3 1/2 years.

Only it wasn't.
GameCube was release in fall 2001 in Japan and spring 2002 in Europe, the Wii was released for Christmas in 2006, giving the GameCube just about 5 years in all regions.
Nintendo even released a big game for it on the release date of the Wii (can you guess which one?,) and the GameCube continued to receive the annual multiplat sports updates until 2007.

It really shouldn't bother you Ninty fans too much that it's just a 7.5 like the Wii was a 6.5, etc were in their gens. You'll still get new iterations of the the big Ninty franchises you guys and gals enjoy. Meanwhile 720 and PS4 fans will get to enjoy all the Best True Next Gen games Exclusively on 720 and PS4 ( plus all the top 1st party games they enjoy from MS and Sony).
