Wii would be a good choice, and other quality games on it include Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Considering your choices, I think you'd like Tales of Symphonia 2 for it a lot.

On the other hand, the PS2 is also a good choice, but I'm assuming you've already played all the games you listed since you said you owned a PS2 before.

The question lies in whether you want to replay old classics that you've learned to love, or take a step into some new games that you've never tried before.

well, i sold my ps2 before i could play ffxii so i'm looking to play that, and your spot on, i have played through all the games i listed.

and the wii does offer a new experience. if i'm not mistaken, it can play gc games right? i owned a ps2 and still own an xbox...well srot off, i lent it to my brother-in-law. and there are games on the gc worth playing if i'm not mistaken.

though, i'm quite histant as i'm not quite sure what the future would bring for the wii.

 

There are definitely some good GC games to pick up when you have a Wii. Considering how you seem to love JRPGs, the first two choices that come to mind are Tales of Symphonia and Baten Kaitos, I played them both and I loved them both. I also hear lots of good stuff about Skies of Arcadia, but I haven't played it myself. Besides RPGs, you've got Metroid Prime 1 and 2 which are both quality games that are worth trying out (well, if you don't like Metroid Prime 1, you should probably ignore 2 as well), you've got Wind Waker which is good, and as someone else said in this thread recently, REmake, which really grabs you with it's spooky atmosphere.
