I was thinking: when the Wii U launches, will every Wii, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 game become games that we refer to as "last generation"? For instance, will Bioshock Infinite, which is coming out in February next year (several months after Wii U), be referred to as a "last-gen" game on it's release day? And by this logic, wouldn't all current games be last-gen, as the next generation has already started with the 3DS and Vita?
What does GAF think? When the Wii U launches, will you refer new X360/PS3/Wii games as current gen even though that'd be incorrect? It seems really strange to buy a brand new game that just released and it being a "last-gen" game. Also, do you think "generations" will start disappearing, in the sense that we no longer refer to consoles as last-gen, current-gen and next-gen?
EDIT: Some people didn't quite understand the topic. The Wii U is a next-gen system; there's no debate about that. When it launches it'll be a current-gen system. But will the X360 and PS3 become last-gen, and more importantly, will people refer to them as last-gen. Will a brand new X360/PS3 game released after the Wii U is released be referred to as last-gen? And will the term "generations" start disappearing or always be there?
