PS2 - 7,000 games according to Sony - likely closer to 3,000 because I think Sony counted each territory separately. Nintendo - Published ~645 across all home consoles and handhelds.
So PS2 = 214 out of ~3,000 titles. Nintendo = 229 out of ~645 titles.

So, why does the total amount of games matter? Ratios mean nothing. How many non-notable games does Nintendo publish relative to how many non-notable PS2 games? There are thousands of PS2 games that were gone and forgotten. Games that didn't have widespread appeal, games based off of a subject with a small audience (cricket, for example), and games that were incredibly bad or had no marketing whatsoever. So while Nintendo has games like these too, they're not nearly as numerous as for the PS2.
