It's pretty stupid to buy a console that you're presumably going to be playing games on for a good 3+ years or more if you're a core gamer for the launch line up.
Typically, if there are two games at launch that I'd actually want to pay full retail price for, that's a big "plus." Arguing over whether the remainder of a collection of mediocre/adequate games on a new platform somehow makes said platform more desirable seems kind of pointless to me considering those games aren't getting my money anyway.
Based upon disappointment I've had in the past with console/hardware launches, I'd say the first year of releases is considerably more significant as that takes into account any potential post-launch game droughts and hopefully includes that first real killer app that consoles generally don't launch with (I suppose Wii Sports counts to many).
