Just want to say, but graphically at least, the 6th gen consoles were pretty clearly Xbox > Gamecube > PS2 > Dreamcast.

PS2 was the most powerful console when it was launched. That is being cutting-edge. Otherwise, NES was not cutting-edge either.

WiiU was the most powerful console when it was launched. Therefore cutting edge.

No it wasn't. WiiU is 7th gen tech like X360 and PS3 and quite frankly it will never have games with better graphics than Gran Turismo 5 or Crysis 2.

You said PS2 was the most powerful console when it launched. It barely have beaten the Dreamcast, but that aside - you're right. But also right is, that the WiiU was the most powerful console when it launched. So you might define 'cutting edge' differently, but if you do it as you do for PS2, the same can be applied to WiiU.

This is obvious for what you do - you apply different measurements for different companies/consoles. Same about the money. Nintendo made long time profit, and you concluded the gamer get more investments for his dollar with Sony or MS. Now Sony makes profit on PS4 and Nintendo loses on WiiU, but you will not accept your own line of argument for current facts.

I dare you to prove that WiiU is more powerful than PS3.

But even assuming the WiiU is more powerful (which is not), what is your point? You want to convince me that WiiU is cutting-edge when it's 1 entire generation behind consoles that were launched only 1 year later?

Regarding the profits, I think I've already told you why it's not wise to consider what happens in some months or years to take conclusions about a company's attitude. Sony had to sell their entire headquarters in the USA. They will need so many little profits like the ones they had last quarter that if things continue on this pace they should be having their buildings back by 2050. If such thing happens (which would be not bad at all for Sony regarding what happened to them in the recent years), will you say they're greedy just by recovering their assets?
