How do you define a generation of consoles?

Normally the newest console by the company I guess...
Gen 1: Nintendo Colour TV game + Atari
Gen 2: Game & Watch + Atari 2600/5200
Gen 3: NES + SG-1000
Gen 4: SNES + Genesis\Mega Drive
Gen 5: N64 + PS1 + Sega Saturn
Gen 6: NGC + Xbox + PS2 + Dreamcast
Gen 7: Wii (And all the DSs) + Xbox360 + PS3 (And all the PSPs)
Gen 8: WiiU (And 3DS) + PS4 (And PSVita) + XboxOne

Etc. c:

The 8th gen... eh.


Microsoft can't make a good console and happens to ruin things with every move they make.


Nintendo had the unfortunate luck of making a system based on outdated hardware which receives most of it's attention from first-party games exclusively. It'll be outclassed soon enough and it's long load times certainly never helped.


Sony hasn't shown us enough honestly. I'm impressed with what they're doing. The only thing I don't like is Sony's exclusives. I've never found them as anything to brag about and my reason for liking the PS4 is that it's the only 100% stable and up to date console so far.

Moving onto handhelds:


I love my 3DS. It carries much more potential than its predecessors did, which first-party developers exploit beautifully. The main issue with it is the fact that third-parties underestimate it and end up making their games a fraction of what they could've been.


The PS Vita is impressive. I haven't had much experience with the device but it carries more power than the 3DS and two touch screens. It shows you just how much hardware Sony can smash into one device. (oh and the games are fun too)



Yeah let's hope Microsoft drops out of the race for the 9th generation in a few years.
