Yeah that's pretty much how I feel too.
6th gen games don't really feel "retro" to me cos I grew up with the 4th and 5th generations. That's just my personal feeling though, I can see how someone who grew up in more recent times may feel that even 7th gen is "retro" by this point.
When I play something like Metroid Prime, Halo Combat Evolved, or OG RE4, it still feels like a mature 3D game, whereas going back to revisit say Ocarina of Time on the N64 feels retro with its more primitive 3D graphics and performance.
