Unpopular opinion, but I like the 3Ds library more than the Ds library, I mostly didnt care much for the Wii and the PS4 > PS3. Thus I gotta go 8th gen on this one.

I played little of third-party games on 3DS (but only a little more on DS), but the first-party library of 3DS was superior to me.

I know it's sacrilege to some but playing software and hardware on anything weaker than a PS2/PSP/3DS is usually of no interest to me. And DS is around a PS1 (sometimes N64) in capability roughly. 

I've probably spent about 99% of my playtime on sixth generation hardware and newer, and as for the software probably about 93-96% sixth generation and newer. EarthBound is a case of a fourth generation title but I played it on Wii U.

I don't know if there's been a thread ranking the game generations (more than just two we're talking about right now), but 6th-8th are easily my top 3. And even with some shortcomings and still years to come, 9th gen will probably still be at least 4th place.
