For me, it'd be the PS4, but that's colored by my preferences and what I'm mostly playing.  If I were to hazzard a guess as to who has the best library for most people, I'd guess the WiiU because of metacritic scores.  What I won't do is go around presenting either of those opinions as indisputable facts, because that's idiotic.  

How is it idiotic? If a system has a lot more games, and many times more critic and user acclaimed games, how does it not have a superior library? Your opinion is that the PS4 has a superior library, which is fine. There are also people who have the opinion that the Xbox One is more powerful than the PS4, which is also fine. Doesn't make it true. Metacritic and user scores are evidence for this.

The part that's idiotic is talking about it as though it's indisputable.  The only things that are indisputable are facts, and what console has the "best" library is an opinion.  If I tell you that my desk is 47 inches x 32" that would be a fact (and a made up giant desk), but if I tell you my desk is the "best" on the market that's an opinion.  Now if I tell you that my desk is the best on the market, period, or that it's undebatable then I have turned an opinion into a fact.  

You can have evidence that your opinion is held by the bulk of the population, but you cannot prove an opinion as a fact.  

Let me ammend my words, I said it was an undeniable fact, but nothing is truly undeniable. You can deny that gravity exists. It is a fact however. Same applies here. The Wii U has been out longer and has gotten much more first-party support than either console due to its time on the market, hence it has the stronger library.
