Of couse PS3 won. It built its legacy on:

Best services: PS Plus, free Netflix, Bluray, free online.
Best games: all multiplats and most exclusives.
Best hardware: da Cellpower, Bluray.

And not relying on fads like other consoles did, so PS3 went rocksteady while others faded.

If we count Wii as same gen as PS3, then PS3 still second in sales, but will catch and pass. If Wii is considered same gen as PS2 as many people would agree, then PS3 already won 7th gen against 360.


If wii was in the same gen as PS2 then WTF gen is GCN in? I guess vita is winning in its own universe too since 3DS isnt as powerful right?

People would argue Wii is same gen as GCN because Nintendo kept same processors and just changed packaging and controllers.

Thus Wii = GCN gen.

And Wii U = PS3 gen.

Nintendo is always a gen behind, they have said they don't compete directly with Sony and MS.


So gens are determined by power right?


In a way, yes.

If power didn't matter we'd be playing on Atari 2600's to date.

I'm glad Sony and MS are around to raise the bar.


Thats good nintendo doesn't need to follow others, i'll play MK8+SSB4+X that will probably be better than most "Next Gen Games" anyway


I'll give you that, Nintendo 1st party is good (depending on taste of course). But come to think of it. If Sega didn't push 3D/polygons, Sony didn't push HD and discs, MS didn't push online, etc, where would we be? Playing Mario in 2D, sub HD using cartridges and offline to this date? Most likely.

Good thing competition exists!
