Well the PS2 is the best console in existence (#opinion), so I doubt there will ever be a console that's able to match it's caliber ever again, especially because 3rd party devs were actually interested in the Nintendo console this time around.

Wait what?! Third Parties were completely unconcerned in Wii!
We just had few third party games like some of Sega, few sports games, and a fps or two.
X360 and PS3 gor almost every 3rd party games!

PS:Funny photo bro! But I would use a cooler one! :D

/Off-Topic Actually I have quite a few Ace Attorney avatars, most of which are of Godot, but I decided that I wanted this one for a few reasons. I'll probably go back to being Godot sometime.

I disagree. Wiiware and shovelware depended heavily on third party devs, not to mention the multitude of devs that lended their hands the Wii such as Square Enix, Capcom, Majesco, Natsume, Vanillaware, Bandai, Tecmo, etc. There were quite a few developers that also didn't make crap (on the Wii).

Even with that, the best third party titles does not work on Wii.
Wii disc-based 3rd party titles were close to none!
This is because the huge hardware difference!
The titles it had were bad ports!
Look at Sonic4 for Wii and look for the X360 one
Even when it had a disc-based game it was a bad port!
Look at CoD BO of Wii and the same of PS3!

You probably already know that!

All of the developers I stated created physical media for the Wii. Just look at the library, there are a boatload of 3rd party developers that actually worked on the Wii.

I'll post two:
Rune Factory Wii 1 and 2
Muramasa: Demon Blade

Those are off of the top of my head, but yup. Also, I do want to say that there are many people that consider CoD:BO Wii to be the best of them. Personally, I think it's a crap game all around, but still.

Two titles from almost unknown publishers!
That sure is unimpressive!
Where are the titles of the big publishers you said!

>Implying that Marvelous and Natsume are unknown
>Implying that Muramasa and Rune Factory are obscure
:wtf:

Also, I didn't think I needed to add most of those. I didn't think I needed to say things such as Final Fantasy CC and Monster Hunter, they're kinda obvious.

Also Google.

Okami is a port the PS2 version!
Madworld is another unknown publisher game
I did not even found Zack and Wiki on brazilian Wikipédia! :tpi:
When I searched Kloana it asked me: Did you mean Katana? :rofl2:

Most of these are RPG games, and none is a AAA title!
The best there that you can say are solid titles are Sonic and Final Fantasy(althougt it's not of the main series)!
The rest are almost unknown games!

Where are GTA and Saints Row?
Where are Mortal Kombat 9, Street Fighter 4, Tekken, Soul Calibur and Marvel vc Capcom?
Where is Battlefield?
Where is Dark Souls?
Red Dead Redemption?
Assassin's Creed?
Skyrim?
Batman?
Bioshock?
FarCry?
Castlevania?

and many other AAA titles that I would spent a whole day to say all of them!
Wii was abandoned, and got just alternative titles and bad ports!
For developers, usually it wasn't even worth trying to port the titles from PS3, X360 and PC to Wii, since Wii hardware is shit!

I wouldn't bother with PS3 now. I've had mine for a while now and the only reason I'd replace it is if it breaks and a repair costs more than a used one. My sights are now set on the WiiU later this year.
prepare to be disapointed

I wish some one had told me to "Prepare to be disappointed" when I bought my PS3, compared the PS1 and the PS2's software library the PS3's is just horrible.

On the main topic, yeah the PS3 needs a price drop, a console shouldn't cost 250$ at the end of its life, it should be much much cheaper by now.
Well the PS2 is the best console in existence (#opinion), so I doubt there will ever be a console that's able to match it's caliber ever again, especially because 3rd party devs were actually interested in the Nintendo console this time around.

I agree the PS2 was an amazing bit of kit, I guess after the runaway success of the PS1 and PS2 I was expecting Sony to at least do better than they have. I know its largely up to the third party devs/publishers/consumers but as a fan of console games I feel that the FPS genre is overflowing.... I have been a PC gamer since the days of the Voodoo add in cards so I may be a bit ahead of most people being tired of FPS games. After playing 1,000 of them you tend to get bored with shooting people/aliens in the face.

My getting tired of FPS games is probably the main reason I enjoy the Wii more than my PS3, the Wii has more of those offbeat "fun" games. The PS3's library has some good fighting games that I do enjoy but really short on the puzzle games and that type.

all that being said, I just hope the Wii-U doesn't get flooded with FPS games now.
