What even counts as "Retro" these days? Are we at the point where Wii/PS3/360 qualify?

These systems are 15 years old so definitely retro. Gameplay from that gen to the XB1/PS4 gen hasn't changed all that much, so those games don't feel quite as old as they are. 8 and 16 bit games definitely feel like they are from that era with their gameplay. PS1/Saturn/N64 all feel like games from the early Polygon era. Likewise with PS2, OG Xbox, and GC having their own gameplay feel for the era.

Yeah for me personally the PS2/Gamecube/Xbox generation feels like where "Retro" begins. They feel very much from a different era whereas gameplay hasn't really evolved much since around 2009.
