Not a Seventh Generation Console
This is not a 7th generation console. This should not be grouped with any of the other consoles.
 * Yeah, what is this doing on the Video Game Consoles template? While we're at it, let's list LeapFrog systems and the Sega Pico! --Guess Who 03:23, 2 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Aye, I completely agree. This does not at all belong here. Toadthetoad 22:42, 2 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Funny joke. Real funny.  - Anonymous


 * ...I think it's "marketing-gen"...what else could it be.... --Dextrone

Yes, it is. The PS3 is less next-gen than this. The 360 isn't even next-gen. Nintendo has admitted the Wii isn't next-gen. 205.188.117.5 17:22, 5 November 2006 (UTC)


 * it is blindingly obvious this is not 7th gen, hence i'm removing the statement saying as such from the article. Mathmo 14:24, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, this is DEFINATELY not a 7th gen console.

I know that hyperscan is subpar, but this is wikipedia not gamefaqs, if you wish to complain, go there. Dagorlad 3 17:21, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

This IS a 7th generation console. Underpowered compared to the others, but 7th gen nonethless. Adam007r

This is a 7th generetion console since it was released in that timeframe, and ideologically it follows the "gimmick reinassance" started by Nintendo DS and other products in this gaming generation. --Olpus 11:33, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

When did we start counting this thing as a seventh gen console? Pretty soon I'll be seeing the V-smile counted as one and a bunch of those little Tiger LCD games listed as competition to the PSP and the DS. Johnnieblue 18:46, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
 * More like competition to the Game and Watch! MessedRocker (talk) 21:45, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Hyperscan-ben10.jpg

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Sunplus should not redirect here
I have noticed since 2019 that Sunplus Technology and the S+Core arch redirects to this page. The HyperScan uses a Sunplus IC like many other devices out there but the console has nothing to do with the company.

Either an article for Sunplus and/or the S+Core arch should be made or the redirect should be removed. CrazyblocksT (talk) 14:13, 8 November 2021 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure if a new article about Sunplus would be a good idea as it doesn't seem very notable to me. I'd say remove the redirect, though I don't have much knowledge on Wikipedia's guidelines. SergioFLS (talk) 18:28, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
