Having played both versions thoroughly, I can say that the Wii version is the only one to play for several reasons.
A. The Wii version is much more vibrant and colorful than the PS2 version.
B. The Wii version can go full 16:9 progressive for HDTV's, you'll have to distort the PS2 version or play with huge black bars.
C. The controls on the Wii version are truely how the game was meant to be played.
Let me explain. With practice, the Wii controls certainly are quicker than the PS2 version. However, that is just the beginning. At the start of the game you will be very poor at drawing with the Wii-mote. Some reviewers who only played the game an hour or two before passing judgement wrote this off to a difficutly control scheme. However, since what you are supposed to be doing in the game is actually painting, it is much more reaslistic and natural feeling.
The Wii version, quite frankly, is how the game was meant to be played. There is no debate, imo. Anyone claiming the PS2 version is better in any way is simply attempting to marginalize the Wii-mote and this games appearance on the console. That or they didn't play it long enough to feel the reward of learning how to control the game with accuracy. It's a AAA game and the Wii version is the definitive version.
This, I assure you.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
