What do you mean by "console generation" ?

Like ps3 games weren't on the ps2.  Ps4 games weren't on the ps3.  Generations were defined by software which isn't true anymore.  

But today games are super expensive and scalable.  So basically games will be designed with scale in mind and available on a wide range of hardware.

Basically how PC works.  Most games still work on a 1080 from many years ago.  A 2080 plays everything despite the 5000 series being available and "current gen."

So consoles will be wide ranging in options but most all games will be available, just a matter of what fidelity the consumer wants.  Again, like PC.  

Edit

Personally I think this is a good thing for two reasons.

A) increased user base means developers can continue to push graphics, size and scope.

B) having a nes, snes, n64, ps2, ps3, ps4 to play collections is just annoying.  Steam is amazing because one piece of hardware and I can play 99% of games.  

I think consoles are figuring out what makes PC so damn good.
