Not true.

Gamecube and N64 were powerful hardware for their time.


Ah you are correct, but I think it matters more this time around because people care more about graphics these days, though I'm not saying people didn't care about graphics back in the day, they actually did. But everything else I've talked about is true. And I personally have a feeling that NX will be less powerful than the PS4 and XBO even though it shouldn't since the PS4 and XBO would contain 3 year old hardware.

You're certainly not wrong there; graphics may have been a big selling point as far back as the 90s, ("Blast processing!" "Mode 7!" "3D graphics!") but I'd say they're probably a bigger deal now than they never have been. 

And yeah, it would not surprise me at all if NX falls somewhere close to the Xbox One in power. I'd be surprised if it overpowers the PS4, even though those systems weren't even super high end in 2013.
