At this point the GC has the better library. I'll give the Wii another year and half before it catches up.

for me, the current lack of star fox/pikmin and the dissappointment that was super paper mario is ruled out by the superiority of prime 3 to its predecessors, the release of disaster day of crisis and the huge upswing in third party support

Prime > Prime 3, but Galaxy > Sunshine.

 

So idk. They're about even for now. Wii's got more hidden gems, i say.

The point in the OP is valid.

The general attach rate for a console is under a dozen.

So regardless of how much drek and shovelware that gets produced, you can find 9-10-12 really excellent games for a system to make you happy and that you have can play for a long long time.

I am Mario.


I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

7. Super Paper Mario - Xbox and PS fans won't get it. They just won't get it...

This game is and will forever be a disappointment--not because it's a bad game, but because it's not the same Paper Mario I know and love.

Don't forget Tales of Symphonia (Gamecube) and Tales of Symphonia 2 (Wii) 2 gems in the RPG world...

I have a PS2 and a NDS, and i have a lot of RPGs in both systems, but this is a Wii vs Gamecube thread...

BTW, ToS and ToS2 are both good JRPGs, and that's rare on the Gamecube and Wii (as of right now)...
