You know that article is not bad, it's just not what people wanna here. The PS2 had a bit less shovelware because buyers were not as uneducated in game quality and perhaps studios realize they can get away with more now that the numbers are in. I don't see how it's a joke article.

Is the 20 "good games" thing true? That's pretty bad.

And Fishyjoe, they acknowledge PS1 and PS2 had lots of shit games, but that the Wii's rate of shit is unprecedented.


I was making a chart based off metacritic scores just a bit ago that dealt with this. The Wii has fewer games in the "good" category, but it has the most good exclusives out of any console (my criteria was 75% or higher, excluding downloadable games). It also has the fewest ports though, which is why the numbers for PS3 and 360 are much higher (I think it was around 70 games shared between the two). They seemed to have a lot of sports/racing games + their sequels also.

I guess that just highlights what everyone seems to know already: the best Nintendo Wii games are made by Nintendo themselves.  So there exclusives are the most of any console in the good range, but they have the fewest good games, based on what you say.  This leads me to believe that there are few titles without a Nintendo logo that are viewed to be very good. And correct me if I'm wrong, but games like Zack and Wiki get good scores, right?  So, how many games are "underrated"?  The entire Wii series (debatable imo), okay I'm not trying to be sarcastic but I can't recall other debatable Wii games right now.  Please mention ones I'm missing, thanks.
