Okay I thought of a more direct way to respond to your remark.
So wine always gets better with age.
Was 2013 the best year the 360 ever had?
Was 2012 the best year the Wii ever had?
In almost every metric except personal opinion the answer to both of those would be no.
Was 2013, for the PS3 its best year ever?
Now we have a serious debate. The Last of Us, the most awarded video game in the history of our planet was released that year. That would be seen as the pinnacle of any company in my opinion.
Using this logic, and my original post, I declare that no, not every console ages like wine and consistently gets better with time. In fact I would say some consoles have a problem with premature ejaculation.
To be honest you should probably take what I just said with a grain of salt.
And take a chill pill dude lol

Where is your planet?
Because in my planet games like Ocarina of time, Metroid Prime and Mario Galaxy exists, and they had even better critical reception... or are you talking about the Grammies of the game industry? Because that´s... funny.
So if a console is terrible the first years but gets better at the end is better than a console that is amazing the first years and average the last ones?
Is now the last year of a console the one who decides wich console is the best?
Where is the logic of that?
Every console gets better every year until they die. Doesn´t matter if their best game is released the 5th year or the second one. In fact, is better on the second one, because you buy the console for some good reason, not just blind faith.

Both the PS3 and the Wii had the majorly critically recieved exclusives compared to the Xbox 360 last gen. I don't get the point of the argument. It exposed just how dependent upon this party Microsoft truly was even for exclusives. Now that Microsoft bought Gears of War and unveiled Killer Instinct those stars have slightly changed. Microsoft might not be able to outdevelop Sony and Nintendo naturally, but they can buy out properties and shell out cash for their development. Now everyone are practically beggining Microsoft to bring back old Rare titles because of how successful KI has been. The initiative this generation has been pretty successful towards using outside third party to develop Rare brand classics.
Nintendo and Sony both offer something different. Sony offers to a crowd that Nintendo will not even try to reach without third party intervention and Nintendo reaches an audience Sony has tried to crack but has failed to. In that light they balance each other out. Where Microsoft fits into the equation is that they have the shooters no one can touch like Halo and Gears. For the FGC, they also have Killer Instinct now.
