Specs don't matter. It's a successor to a 7th gen console, thus it's 8th gen. Plus the graphical jump from Wii is pretty big, and 1080p solidify's it as 8th gen. I didn't see 1080p on XBO.


Exactly.  Wii U is a generational leap in performace over it's predecessor.   It exists as an alternative to X1 and PS4, and will exist alongside them the same as X1 and PS4 exist alongside each other.  It isn't even reasonable to argue that Wii U isn't an eighth generation console.  It's a shame this thread needs to exist, but apparently it does in order to educate people.

Specs do not matter.  Not one bit.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.
