NES - 3rd gen (after the 1st & second gens and the subseuent video game crash of '77), SNES - 4th gen (with Genesis), N64 - 5th gen (with PS1), GC - 6th gen (with PS2, Xbox), Wii - 7th gen (With 360/PS3), WiiU - 8th gen (with the soon to be released PS4/720). Please go back and prove all systems listed here are actually in the gen before so the numbers line up with your argument, provide evidence based on articles, sales comparisons, analysts, etc. that the numbers for the previous gens are wrong and are not accepted by the industry. If you can't disprove that the N64 was 5th gen, GC was 6th gen and Wii was 7th (and so on), you have no case that the successor to the accepted 7th gen system from Nintendo would not be an 8th gen system, as it is one generation, or new architecture/platform release after the accepted 7th gen console (Wii). (7 + 1 = 8)

Have you thought about the possiblity that the whole system has been fucked from it's inception? Also the GC was hardly noticably better than the PS2 or Xbox. Same with the PS1 and N64. Compare something like RE:3 to Golden Eye.
However with the Wii, well the power difference is phenomanl, and the same apparently will happen yet again.
Also saying "omg look at the past" doesn't change the fact that as of right now, two major sources have said the Wii U is not next-gen.
Please avoid fallacies and address what was said:

@bold Conspiracies man... Since its inception it has been defined as this, if all of a sudden it changes to whatever you are arguing that it should be then thats what the generations will be defined as.(See my other post in this thread)
But for now it is what it is and Wii U will be defined by most as 8th gen.

Right so saying a system which doesn't follow the standard business practice of "generation" is a conspiracy, but claiming the EA CEO is butthurt and DF is out to destroy the Wii U isn't?
Lolk if you say so.
This is the issue. Too many gamers are wholly unaware of buisness practice and terms outside of gaming.

@bold Where in my post did I say anything about this? It seems you are making up stuff for no reason just because you do not agree with my opinion.
