That's all very sensible, and I agree with most of it.
But a question springs to the mind. If competing on the market (and for developers' resources) is the base of the conventional definition of generations, how come the PS2 is pigeonholed in a different generation than the last one?
It is still sold on the market against the other consoles, it still has games developed for, it still has accessories produced for. When the "next-gen" consoles will come out, won't they again compete on the same market against current consoles?
Let's face it, there's not much usefulness in the generation definitions. Not even for businessmen, who will have to dive into much more detailed demographic analysis of the console potential customers and could not care less about this "generations" thing.
