People have been saying that since the Wii and let met tell you....

 

This is total HORSESH*T. Sorry to say sheep but yes, yes its is defined by power.Thats the CORE of a "new generation". New tech , better tech, MORE POWERFUL tech and overall better graphics.

 

Stop making excuses for Nintedno. They are indeed being cheap pieces of sh*t selling you retro ass hardware so they can make more cash from stupid people.

 

But its not working this time around now is it. The original Wii sold  a lot on a total FLUKE beacuse of a gimmick that  now everybody hates and market of casulas that will never get another console again but instead they will go for the iphones/ipads ect ect in in this day and age. The wii u is done.

 

Its a pice of retro trash  as far as I'm concerned and no one should get it (and no one does really so A+ to gamers on  that).

 

So yes a  generation is indeed defined by power and not dumbass f*cking gimmicks like a moronic cotroller with a huge screen that was stupid back wen it was announced it and is just as stupid right now (maybe even more).

I agree, it most definitely is. That's why the Wii got different games to the PS3/360 and why the Wii U gets the same games as the PS3/360. Next generation starts with the 720 or PS4, whichever comes first, we are still in the first HD generation, nintendo is just late to the party.

IF generations ARE determined by power then consoles would be a couple generations behind PC. That kind of logic is stupid when you factor the PC in so do yourself a favor and don't.

Yep that is why PS2, a weaker console won last gen.. Seriously this tech hyping is so fvcking dumb.. This has become a cancer.. A crutch that will lead to the next console gaming crash.. In which companies play it safe by making massive budgeted shiny looking games with the same gameplay with minimal change so they can continue riding the band wagon.. We are seeing this exact same sh!t with games like KZ4 very shiny, and very typical fps that hasn't changed at all in gameplay since the beginning of this gen.. This is why I wish the current gen of consoles would continue because big devs may actually be FORCED to create something new and different..

Except the PS2 wasn't using garbage hardware, it was weaker but it still good in comparison to the rest. Unlike the wii and wii U.

Yeah if Wii could run 360/PS3 games and WiiU could run PS4/Nextbox games that'd be different.

PS 2 was no slouch plus it was a great deal considering you could get a console and dvd player in one device. DVD players were still fairly expensive back then.

So what if the pc has more powerful hardware? Also a generation console jump is typically 5-6 times the power of the previous gen. Titan with cutting egde cpu isnt 10x the power of PS 4.

The PC is held back a lot by cosoles thats a fact. Also its a fact  the generations are defined by the cosoles. Thats why PC gamers want new genartions to start as soon as possible.If the PS4 and 720 (?) didn't have more power then the Wii U, PC would have had its progress just f*cked.The of the PC is few gens in front of cosoles but the software is not and the software (the games) is what matters. To have this new software you NEED new more powerful hardware in the cosoles. Thats why a generation is indeed defined by power (of the cosoles).

 

Whats your point anyway. You seem to me like another idiot that has no clue what hes talking about.

Firstly I'm saying that generations shouldn't be determined by power and should be determined as they are by console generations. Secondly I'm saying that if you were to subscribe to the logic that generations are determined by power you could make an argument that PC's are at least a generation ahead of consoles. Even if most games are limited because of consoles, games like Crysis 3 being played on PC at the highest settings and with mods are already producing higher graphical fidelity than what will be available on next gen consoles. Tell me where you think I'm wrong and don't know what I'm talking about.

Its defined by power. The only ones that don't agree are Sheep for the two gens in a row. Its hard to agree that a generation is defined by power when your console has none lol i understand your pain.

You need power to make the most amazing, innovative, inspiring games now and days.

Don't get me wrong Wii had some amazing games XenoBlades and what not. It takes a lott of creativity to stand up on a much less power machine and bring something thats so amazing no matter what, graphics, Ai or not.

Just imagine how much better Xenoblade would have been if it was built from the ground up on PS3 though.

No one would give two craps about the wii version because they would want the 4 times better PS3 version.

Every generation was a huge leap from the previous one. NES to SNES to PSone and PS2 then X360 etc ... Therefore you can play now games that was impossible to play , keyword=impossible , on previous systems. And so previous gen consoles ( PS2 ) could play games that the generation before them couldnt ( ps1 ) . When you have a console like Wii that couldnt manage to provide this next-gen gaming feeling because of hardware restrictions ( did you see CoD on wii compared to PS3/X360 ? or you deny the fact that Wii lost major AAA multis because of power restrictions as well? ) where thats the case with Wii U more or less ( or to be precise will be not yet ) then .... what are you saying .. That Wii U is a true next-gen console that wont be able to play all the massive next-gen titles because of power restrictions ? Isnt something off here ?
