There's something off about your chart.... I'm pretty sure the Wii was less powerful than the Sega Genesis. It didn't even have blast processing!

Unsurpassed

the nextbox and ps4 will be powerful, but this thread is exaggerating abit I think

Not exagerated, just "unscientific".

Chart sucks. Wii bar is way too close to the others.

I'm most certain that I'll end up with a PS4 and NeXtBox. This is based on the assumption that PSN and XBLA games will be focused on a great deal. Nintendo hasn't had the dedication to downloadable and indie games that the other two have. I purchase consoles based on that dedication, since AAA gaming very rarely pleases me as a gamer. Innovation is found when the little developer is forced to put great effort into scratching and clawing their way into the gaming world. As well, more new IPs come from new and smaller development teams.

I'm not saying there's no chance I'll ever own a Wii U. But I currently have no interest, and it will probably be at least a few years before any games come out that could possibly change my mind. But I may spring for a PS4 or NeXtBox at or near launch, unless they try and force a controller gimmick on us like Nintendo has.

That's a very good point. Some of the best games of this generation have been digital only. I do wish they would come out on disc though because I like owning the things I buy, but stuff like Shadow Complex and Quantum Conundrum can't be missed.

The chart is way too fanboyish and not based on realism at all.

Look at my thread on the comparison of rumored tech in next-gen so far. It doesn't match your graphs.

You can't see the PC, since it was off the charts.

The GameBoy Color is such a creeper creeping up on the DS Lite like that.
