And the PS2 had lots of great games when it launched? I don't think so Tim. Compared to the games that came after a year on the market, the first year was full of bad software with the occasional gem in the mix. And now, there are quite a few bad games for the PS3, but there are gems out there. Sure, some are multi-plat games, but you can't deny that they are on the PS3 and are good games.
Prior to November, you could have gotten away by using the "PS3 has no games", but now there are enough good games out already and NONE of the big established series have released yet. (With exception of DMC4 which just did release). This year, we have GTA4, MGS4, Socom, GT5, and potentially FF, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Just because there are only "roughly" 10 million PS3 owners doesn't mean that the games will stop coming out.
And you want to bring up the "Shovelware" arguement while touting the Wii? Take a look at the majority of 3rd party games for the Wii.. They are mostly shovelware and/or PS2 ports that have been tweaked to use the Wiimote.
