minus-squaresbird@retrofed.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-23 天前Consoles are grouped into “generations” since they are usually released close together, and it’s console-neutral (less perceived bias) 7th gen is Xbox 360, PS3, and the Wii (the GOATs because I grew up during that, peak of console gaming in my opinion) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_video_game_consoles TLDR: Gen 1 and 2: pre-NES days of console gaming, think the older Atari ones Gen 3: NES and friends Gen 4: SNES, Genesis, and other friends Gen 5: PS1, N64, Saturn Gen 6: PS2, GameCube, OG Xbox, Dreamcast Gen 7: mentioned above Gen 8: PS4, Wii U, OG Switch, Xbox One Gen 9: PS5, Switch 2, whatever naming scheme Xbox uses nowadays (X and S I think?)
