I really dont get all the generation talk, it's this simple when PS4/XBO/Wii U were the main platforms, those were current gen. PS4/XBO are still the main platforms and Nintendo replaced Wii U with NSW, now those are current gen. In the next 2 years Sony/MS will replace PS4/XBO with PS5/XB4 and Nintendo will stick to NSW, when that happens PS5/XB4/NSW will be current gen.

I dont think anyone other than Wikipedia lists generations by numbers, it's usually just previous, current or next.

I don't get the generation thing either...... but the numbering structure for generations have been there. And I don't think wikipedia invented it.

What you are describing though is current and next or last gen. And that I can relate with that cause its a far less convoluted way to look at things. I mean we just take whatever is in current circulation and group them together.

 

You might be right, I just cant recall ever hearing Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft or any major 3rd party publisher refer to any console as 7th/8th/9th/etc gen.
