And what category does the PS2, Wii, Xbox, Nintendo DS/3DS fit into? They aren't retro, but they're not really "modern" either

My line is at the transition from 2d to 3d mostly.

2d is retro. Early 3d is like the awkward teenage years. Everything since Xbox 360/PS3 is modern to me.

Yup. Initial 3D games were, let's just say awkward.
