If you added handhelds to this graph, it would make things easier to understand for the confused people.
Just assume for a moment that Sony had not exited the handheld space, then the Vita successor would have been due in 2016 or 2017. It would have been a no-brainer for everyone that the Vita successor does not belong into the same generation as the Vita; and if a new Sony handheld cannot be the same gen in 2016/2017, then obviously a new Nintendo console wouldn't be the same gen as the 3DS and Wii U either. Things could have been so simple if Sony didn't suck so hard.
Or just look a the Dreamcast bar. Why do you put it in the sixth gen despite the bar actually looking more appropriate for the fifth gen? It's because Sega had the Saturn in the fifth gen already.
Console generations are defined by time, and time alone.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
