Wii is Next Gen! Stop saying its not!?

[Kris]

My definition is a more powerful system. Wii is more powerful on paper, but in-game the differences between Wii and gamecube games are subtle at best.
I think everyone should just agree that it's exempt from classification.

I agree with this guy, and if you read my post on page 8 it says it too. It is not a better version than the Gamecube, it is a new version of nintendo.
A PS3 is a better version of the PS2, that's why they have numbers, 1,2 and 3.
An Xbox 360 is a better version than the Xbox. Both has xbox in the name.

Just wait until dev's get more used to the system. Launch games usually don't have great graphics, and graphics are usually the benchmark for power.

Terrible analogy. Ninendo is the company, not the name of the system. PS3 is not a better version of PS2. Its not a version of it at all. All they share is the word Playstation. There is not one piece of hardware that resembles the PS2 in the PS3. Vise versa with the 360. The only system that has hardware that resembles the older system is the Wii.

How about this: They're all next-gen in their own ways.

well the PS2's hardware resembled the PS1's and thats why they didnt need to use software emulation to play older games so by going by that theory, the PS2 isnt the same gen as xbox1 or GC. i believe the Wii is next gen but not GFX wise. it is a newer system that just happened to launch with the new generation so it should be catagorized next gen

OoOo i like this one too. Of course then people can bring up the fact that they are not unique. someone told me once... "If everyone is supposed to be unique in their own way... then isn't everyone the same because they are all unique in their own way" nvm I'm talking to myself =)

Actually the PS2 had totally different hardware. They just stuck in the PS1 processor for backwards compatability.

1) It's spelled Jury

2) I also have all 3 systems to my disposal, and that actually has nothing to do with having an ubiased view. That's like saying the Nvidia super fanboys aren't biased because they also have a machine with an ATI. And we all know that's not true.

3) ABC, why do you sound younger and younger with every post you make?

So we have learned 2 things about this Lethal guy. First off, he has obviously not see the inside of a ps2/ps3/xbox or xbox360, because he has no idea what he is talking about. And secondly, he has obviously no clue what the phrase "vice versa" means. Retarded people need not try to be righteous please.

Next Gen does mean next generation.. that isnt anything in particular but "next gen" my kids will be next gen... the next generation.. you fan boys need to grow up and get a life... ***** about real world problems.. not what you like that someone else doesnt.

Agreed. Your maturity level has decreased with every post you make.

This fighting is useless. ALL THE NEW CONSOLES ARE NEXT GEN IN THEIR OWN WAY! There is no denying it. There isn't even a clear definition of what 'next gen' is. It's just the next generation of consoles... I meant that's pretty obvious... Nintendo has revolutionized gaming not through graphics but through gameplay. That's more than the other consoles can say. But, they do have better graphics/sound...

This is just getting STUPID!

Don't cry because you got wrecked and I pointed it out. Want a pacifier?

And let me mention ladies and gents, this comment is coming from the guy who writes **** like this:

if you want to feel mature, pick up smoking and go rent a porn.

Very mature, Dad.

could this thread please jus b closed already. all 3 systems r next gen. all 3 systems have some advantages 2 them, and some games that make them unique. all 3 r decent systems. (xcept i hate ps3's, but its still decent). ok

 

[alocubano1110]

how about who gives a **** if it is next gen or not??? just play/buy it if you like it and call it what you want... call it next gen if you want it's all about everyone's OPINION.
