In what gen has Nintendo been more innovative?

3rd gen. Their innovations literally gave birth to the 2nd coming of vidyagames.

2nd I'd have to say 6th gen in terms of software innovation and the DS.

7th gen comes in 3rd for me.

EDIT:Wait DS is 7th gen?

Yes, I believe GBA is considered 6th gen because it launched alongside the GameCube/PS2/Xbox era of consoles. It gets confusing because Nintendo didn't really have an official 5th gen handheld, just the Game Boy Color.
