With the exception of Type 0 I'm inclined to agree.

Heh.
OP: Premature, much?

And? Genesis is only relevant because it was Sega's last console that survived a console cycle. I think the reason why people feel this way is nostalgia. Nostalgia plays a bigger role during this period because that's your first (and likely fondest) memories of video games. I started gaming at the end of the 4th, start of the 5th for reference. |
Sega Saturn?
The genisis had enough good games that made it worth owning. Was the only console my family had for the generation and we were happy. Would I call that generation the best ever? No but I'd put it above the 1st,2nd and 5th at least. Had I had a SNES I'd probably put it above the 3rd as well. You can't argue nostalgia for me, fist console I was playing on was an Atari, then the NES.
If you take out Wii U of this gen, yes it is the worst. Almost every game that comes out for PS4 or XB1 is overhyped and then it sucks.
Not even close. Gens 1 & 2 were far worse. So far this gen feels like the beginning of the 7th gen did, up until the 2007 fall / holiday season when we finally got stellar games that went on to define the 7th gen, such as Bioshock, Mass Effect, Uncharted, Mario Galaxy, and COD4.
2015 seems to be the year that we finally get worthy software for the current crop of consoles.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
I completely agree BUT it is still early days into this gen.
