Pick a genre where PS2 had gems, they were in nearly all of them, first, second or third party. Doesn't matter. The amount of hot third party titles on the PS2 was astonishing. Heaps of JRPG's, Action-Adventure games, Platformers, Hack N Slash, Sand Box games, Sports, Party games and more. Also remember that Motion cam gaming started on the PS2. It was just commercial domination. The reason the few great games the Wii has can barely be seen is because of they are surrounded by crap at Gamestop. Again it begs to question whether developers and publisher had a problem with the motion controls or whether they just wanted a quick buck and thought casuals wouldnt notice the difference. If the Wii had a strong core backing they wouldnt need to end the console now at five years after the profit they made from the casuals.

 

The PS2 sold 1.51 billion games during its time.

The Wii sold 716.09 (Probably a bit more now, but not much).

Yeah...thats nearly double the amount of games the Wii sold.

I never doubted the PS2 has much gems (some of them I own), as you also admitted that the Wii has gems. But if I look through the PS2-shelf at Gamestop (I think this is the only game-shop in my city that has PS2-games now), I have much crap for choice. I forgot most titles as I saw them, but Eternal Quest, God Hand, stuff like that. For PS2 exists much of this crap. I somehow doubt, the crap-percentage on PS2 is much lower (if even), than on Wii.


God hand isn't crap, you might not like beat em ups but I grew up on those since the NES. That was a hot and very underrated game that wasn't commercialized at all by Capcom.

But i wrote "I will just say the interesting exclusives i own" it's the job of VGChartz to compare i was doing something personal because i can't say an absolute statement like some guy in this thread, not you.

This thread was supposed to share opinions there are not absolute things like.

Personal experience, that's all. 

So now that you have understood, think as me as a gamer see how many 1st party title i have and how many 3rd ones.

I have only selected interesting games that i'm sure they are good, so ignore all comments you said things about bad games. Maybe in some other list on this thread, not on my.

The title just does not make sense in my opinion.

If you put "The Wii has Much More Exclusive Games than Any Other For Me" that would make a lot more sense.

That would still be a stretch.

He has "than any other for me" in the title for a reason. However, I can see where you are coming from.

Sony revealed earlier this year that they spend more money on first party this year than Microsoft and Nintendo combined. But yeah, did state that it was his opinion.

spending a lot of money and earining a big profit are two different things. I know which I would prefer. Spend less and make more.

I would have to say that compared to the other consoles, the wii really lacked in third party games. Quality third party games. I see the Op's List and Cassiels list, but that does not change my mind. The tough thing is to pick between the PS3 and the 360 since they both have a lot of the same third party games.


hence you get both. One for your halos and gears and the other for your MGS and uncharted.

That is why I am so excited! I have never really played much of the 360 or the PS3 so I will finally get some of the games that they are getting on the wii U! I have played some, just not much. It is sad...


Which is exactly why the 360 doubled their sales this generation. Hot third parties who were associated exclusively with Sony last gen.

Those might be the most popular exclusives on the PS3, but there are plenty of others that are worthy of sequels. Plenty of experiences.

Wow....

OP you think exclusive = 3rd party? Well you're wrong.
