No offense but Nintendo has always been late to the party when it came to the promises of scale in console titles vs the competition. Their consoles generally couldn't process as much and western devs have always had a huge gripe with Nintendo about that. Devs want to push animations, scale of the maps and environments. Newer engines are being created with newer tools, that Nintendo platforms always seems to be either too late for or are never powerful enough to fully realize. Nintendo has their experience and the other consoles have theirs. This is how its been for almost two decades now and Nintendo doesn't seem to want to change.

ummmm Wii and Wii U=/=always.

The GCN, N64 and SNES were powerful systems. 


Perhaps I should change that to the period after the playstation launched.

PS1 era= N64 was behind because of discs were the new way to go. Nintendo feared piracy so they stuck with cartridges. That marked the end of the Nintendo lockdown era where Nintendo held third parties down ruling with an iron fist.

PS2 era= Nintendo used discs that couldnt hold as much space even though they had better graphics than the PS2, the PS2 could still hold more.

Wii= A generation in power all around. Nuff said.

Next gen= will be outclassed on all fronts just like this gen.
