Wow, I expected the 8th gen to win by a mile, I guessed that wrong. I am 8th, because of the quality. GoW 2018, Horizon, Bloodborne, Souls 3, Mario 3D World, Bayonetta 2, Breath of the Wild, etc. I thought the 8th generation was just superb.

Spider-man, Elden Ring, RE2 Remake, RE3 Remake, RE7, RE8, RE4 remake, Witcher 3, Automata, 13 Sentinels,

Many of the most notable games that are always brought up were primarily during the second half of the 8th gen, but they were also individual titles. Throughout the 7th gen, you had entire trilogies of fantastic games whether it was Gears of War, Mass Effect, Bioshock, or Uncharted trilogies, and all the platforms were pretty much firing on all cylinders from the beginning to the end of the generation, including handhelds.

To this day, 2007 alone is considered to be one of, if not the greatest year in video game history. 

Bayonetta started out as a series on 7th gen first anyway.

Resident Evil 2, 3, 4 are older generation titles with a new coat of paint... Remakes don't set a good precedent on platform originality or quality in terms of game library.

Wii U did have some great games, but it's library was really small overall; there was just so much more to play on Wii, as it was supported for longer both on the first and third party side.

My Wii U collection topped out at 19 games, whereas I own 50 games on Wii.

I have about 60 physical WiiU games, pretty much the extent of the Australian PAL releases.

WiiU had some of the most successful and highly rated games of all time, ironically enough.

Thankfully Wii Games can run on the console just fine... And look better thanks to native HDMI.
