I know how the generation system works, but I can never think of the corresponding ones off the top of my head. I just know that the Atari 2600 and coleco are generation 2. After that I have to start counting Nintendo consoles to figure things out. And even that kind of breaks down a little bit once you hit the Wii u.

Yeah I always need to double check on the generation numbers as well so typically refrain from using them.

Here's an easy to remember console generation formula:

PS[console number]+4=Gen

PS1+4= 5th gen.

PS5+4=9th Gen.

So with Microsoft, we can just add +5.

Ok, so Xbox 1+5=6 gen

And Xbox 360+5=Ok don't work

But Xbox One +5......Fuuuu
