Forums - Gaming Discussion - Who will have a better library? Wii or Playstation 2

BxN on 31 May 2009

I think that Nintendo should worry about having a better line up than their current competitor instead of a last gen console.

You can't count the GC's library as part of Wii's library. They're two separate consoles, the Wii just has backwards compatibility for it.

As for your question, I can't really tell. They both have a ton of games but a majority of them are crap. I'm going to say Wii just because I like it's first party titles way more.

but I thought the Wii was 2 Gamecubes duck taped together!

YesWiiCan: Your next thread should be a comparison 2.5 yrs in, between the two consoles in question. Also I think people have rose colored glasses when looking back at the history of the PS2. Yes it had great games like MGS2, but for every great game there were heaps of Spongebobs and bob the builder or christina aguilera's karaoke master.

Why is it that all of a sudden the crap games on Wii are the ones that get trumpeted the most by ppl who dont like the system? Like they bring up cooking mama as if there isn't a game by the name of Mario Galaxy, or Metroid Prime Corruption.

Because staple Nintendo franchises aren't gonna make the library look great. Besides your typical Nintendo franchises and a few good 3rd party games, what else is there? Crap, that's what. Whereas the PS2 had all it's great 1st party games, and many many GREAT 3rd party game. There was so much offered on both ends that the shovelware was an afterthought.

The only thing different about the Wii now, and the Gamecube is that since it's the marketleader, it gets most of the crap, but the library (outside of the crap) isn't that great, comparatively (to the PS2 or the HD consoles). I'd dare say they're all just updated Gamecube games (barring all the "Wii" titled games)

well, he's kinda right in some aspects since you use the Wiimote for those and PS2 didn't have any controller that's like the Wiimote.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi
