I sort of did this same thing. Being a kid of the 80's, I grew up with Nintendo, then Sega, then Sony then MS... but PS4 and Xbox One... I don't know... they sort of, it's gotten stale to me now. It's like, GTA, there's no charm left. It's played out. FPS like Halo and COD? Played out... tired. Even overall, the feel of modern "dark" games, they all feel the same to me now. But Nintendo? I don't know why, but that magic that was there as a kid, it's still there. I play a new Mario game and it's like, shit... why is this still fun? There's just something timeless about Nintendo, I really can't put my finger on it.

Basically, it's why I'm now gaming retro consoles and Wii-U 100% of the time. It's the only 8th generation console that feels fun to me and my PS4 just sits in rest mode, collecting updates to games I can't care enough about to play (and I own a few great ones from Christmas).

Wow this sounds so much like me right now. Lately I too have become so bored with current gen. Too many open world games, fps, and remasters. 

I really haven't touched my ps4 since Christmas. I've been going back to gen 6, ps2 in particular buying up around 60 games so far replaying a lot of my favorite games. Next up I'll probably be buying a GameCube and og Xbox. Also been craving a gba sp and some Pokemon ruby and sapphire.
