Do Next-Gen Games Give Us Next-Gen Gameplay?

I have an interesting question.

How do you define a game as having next gen gameplay?

It has to have gameplay that was not able to be produced on previous consoles.

 

I would rather define it as gameplay that's so revolutionairy and fitting with the given platform, that it defines either the generation or the console the software was on. Pong did it, Donkey Kong did it, Super Mario Bros. did it, Super Mario 64 did it, Ocarina of Time did it, Goldeneye 007 did it, GTA III did it, Halo perhaps did it, maybe even Metroid Prime and RE4 did it, Wiisports did it, Wiifit did it... many games have done ''next-gen'' gameplay, although the term next-gen is somewhat silly.
