Generations are not defined by how long the systems sit on shelves for. It's not still the baby boomer generation just because there are baby boomers still alive.

There is still a baby boomer generation and their numbers are being tracked.

But we don't live in the "baby boomer" generation anymore. 

There are no more baby boomers.  You are correct.

But, like I said, I challenge you to find a single news source since February 14, 2011 that uses PS2 sales numbers as of November 2006 as total sales for the 6th generation sales.

According to everyone the PS2 sold 150,000,000+ million consoles during its generation.  That number was achieved long after the PS3 released.  And in 10 years they will not say the Wii sold 100 mill, PS3/360 80 mill.  They will say what the numbers were after manufacturing of the consoles ceased.

You can't win a race after the race has ended.

MS, Sony, and Nintendo are still manufacturing their 7th gen consoles, so they obviously don't think the race has ended.  What we are bickering about is when the race ends.  History will judge the 7th gen race on when the consoles quit being manufactured.  That is how every generation has been judged to date.

Its that simple.
