The wii is the most popular system this generation... driven by... software from Nintendo mostly.
So... no, i'd say Japan makes the best. |
Wii sales are driven by some of the lowest quality software I've ever seen, not exactly a great argument for quality.
|
That's what we'd call a personal opinion.
It isn't backed up by sales. Which is basically the only way of judging a medium that isn't based on performance (like cars) or artistic merit. (Like books or movies.)
|
1. "lowest quality software Ive ever seen" implied that it was my opinion even I didn't come out and say it
2. Games have no artistic merit? I gotta leave this thread somebody just opened pandoras box.

Some games do... however the Wii actually wins in that regard.
For a piece of work to have artistic merit it needs to embrace the strengths of it's medium. Few games do this.
Most run from it... like say MGS4 which tries to be "like a movie."
You won't see a movie praised for "Being just like a book by having large walls of text."
Games like Shadow of the Collosus, Super Mario Brothers, The Mario Kart games... these games actually have way more artistic merit then the games most people mistake for artistic because they have a lot of cutscenes.
|
Who said anything about Metal Gear? I was talking about Demons Souls. And please don't tell me you don't think it embraces the medium.
|
Couldn't say, haven't played it.
It's still one game versus... well many.
