Generations of video game consoles
From Gaming Archive
The following is a list of all video game platforms and devices in chronological order from the date of their creation, including each generation of console. The list will be divided into eras, which are named based on the dominant console type of the era, even though they're not of the same type or design. Some eras are based on how many bits a major console could process, although this practice ended with the sixth generation. The list also includes handheld devices, microconsoles, and dedicated consoles, including, but not limited to, PC as well.
