A gen has never been defined by power. Show me a case where a console that has exceeded its rivals in power within the same competing timeframe that has been next gen at the time.
Was the n64 a gen above ps1 ?
Or the 3do being 6th gen?
By saying the WiiU is current gen, you are basing it on power. This has never been the case. Unless you can give me an example?
This was only "the case" starting in Generation 7 (or this gen) when the Wii came out. The Wii is, in all honesty, a Gamecube that has been overclocked, had more pipes added and given new RAM. Because it was so much weaker, people thought it shouldn't be considered apart of generation 7. Again, ignoring how much weaker the PS2 was to the Gamecube and Xbox, or even your examples.
