Has the Wii failed as a gamer console?

Nah. Its just obscured by the superior libraries of the PS3 and X360. Otherwise, it's pretty good. Heck, given that Wii2 isn't due to come yet, I'll probably get one new.

I wouldn't say that either console has a superior library, unless we're talking about 3rd party mulitplat titles...

The Wii has, IMO, the biggest range of games, with quality games in the 2D and 3D platformer, Action and/Adventure, (J)RPG, FPS, TPS, Action RPG, Sports, On-Rail shooters, racing, Strategy, and many others.

Maybe the PS3 has a library on-par with it, but I wouldn't say that either is 'better', just catered to different audiences.

Also- PS2 is Shovelware king. 2,500 games with less than 100 worth buying...

First: when you say the library it means all games, first plus 3rd party plus online games etc etc...

Second: do you HONESTLY believe what you typed? (the bolded)

Let me see:

2D -3D paltformer - Yes, easy.

Acttion/Adventure - Zelda is not enough. Okami is just a port.

JRPG - Xenoblade is one of the best of this gen. The Last Story is good. Both aren't big meltdowns...

FPS - Goldeneye. Not enough.

TPS - RE4 is a port.

Action RPG - Is Pandora's Tower the only one on Wii?

Sports - Yes.

On rail shooters - Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles. Yes.

Racing - lol no. MK Wii is fun and good, but no.

Strategy - Has Wii any game of this genre? Maybe Little King Story?

 

So, I doubt Wii has quality games of all genres.
