If the gen is over, someone sure forgot to tell the console manufacturers that.

Releasing the PS4/Xbone/Wii U is their white flag; it's the 8th gen now.

The white flag?

"In all championships which use the FIA International Sporting Code, as well as North American road racing, the white flag indicates the presence of an official car or a competitor moving at below normal speed"

Did they wave the white flag for the slow Wii?

"In NASCAR, IndyCar, North American motorcycle road racing, and most American forms of motorsports, a white flag displayed at the starter's stand indicates the start of the final lap of the race."

Or has the final lap just begun? That would be even worse for the Wii, if it ran out of juice in the last lap: did not finish!

Perhaps it is not a race with a predefined number of laps but an endurance competition where the winner is, who goes the farthest.

And why does one race automatically end when a different new race with other competitors starts, even if some or all of the new competitors have the same sponsors  (Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft).

A generation is the time in which a set of consoles are the leading edge ones; now that PS4/X1/Wii U are out, PS3/360/Wii are no longer on the leading edge.
