FJ-Warez, you are right, he would complain either way. The winning console gets the bonus of getting the most shovelware. Every generation.

Um, did Sony "destroy" the industry by allowing Winnie to Pooh, Rugrats & Bob the Builder games on the Playstation? Or: 

WhoEVERY console gets shovelware, and the winning console gets the most.... 

 


yeah, but the Wii is getting a higher percentage of crap than the PS2 did. We just had thread about that. Also, the Wii is getting a lower number of great games. Still, it's not all bad.


At this point the Wii is more comparable to the PS1 than the PS2. With the PS2, developers were on board from the start. With the PS1, the developers were uncertain as to which of the 3 consoles would take off, and were a bit hesitant in their support of it. The PS1 had lots and lots of shovelware its first couple of years, while the N64 was being known as the "quality" console. And then FF7 was released, and that opened the floodgates for the PS1's "quality" titles.
