The Ghost of RubangB on 26 February 2011
Generations are strictly historical terms, referring only to the time they were released. The 7th generation started with the DS, and included the PSP, XBox 360, Wii, PS3, iPhone, n-Gage, Gizmodo, Wu, Vii, and maybe even Facebook as a gaming platform.
The 8th gen just started with the 3DS.
Seriously, arguing these terms is like saying "I think the 80s started in 1975 because I feel it in my gut."
