Then you need to be taught what i t means to be backwards compatible. 

cab you play wiiU? games on the wii/GameCube/SNES/nes?

Yh, didn't think so.....

No you can't hence why I called the Wii U genorationless not the old systems.

No one said it had to  play the "original carts" or "can't be backwards compatible" just "X consoles games" was used,  so I demonstrated how silly that definition is in general. Then people added more restrictions to the definition of " X consoles games".

How about we add HDtwins remasters on their successors, Gamecube remasters on Wii U and N64 remasters on 3DS into the restrictions too because well you know they do have "physical media"

ok. now you've confused me. 

Can you take say the GOW collection remaster on the PS3 and pop that into a PS2 and it works? 

I don't know why or how you are managing to complicate this. But it's simple. The PS3 will play PS3 discs/media and may have BC support for PS2/1 media/games. that makes the PS3 it's own generation of console. The PS4 is its own generation of console cause you can't take a PS4 game and pop it into a PS3 and have it work. If you could, then both the PS3/4 will be regarded to be of the same generation.
