The answer to your friend should be a clear and loud NO.
The worst gamers are those who just pretend to seek advice.
Unexperienced gamers are allowed to ask any question about a system, but experienced gamers who don't make their mind up on their own and ask others if a system "now" (i.e. finally) has enough titles available to make it a worthwhile purchase for them should never buy said system in the first place. It just shows that they never cared enough about the system to check the games library on their own.
From the way you described this guy in this thread there seems to be a high chance that once he bought a Wii it will soon - attention - "collect dust" (the most preferred term of those Wii owners who act as if they had been forced by obscure, magic powers to buy this strange system) and that he'll continue to secretly or openly dislike the system even after he bought it.
