Coming up to front to find that your headmate just said "the Wii is basically the PS2 of Nintendo" is an interesting feeling.

@Trinket @Rosemary okay but Rose left out the bit about _why_ so I'm curious now why you say it's true, Trinket

@Felthry @Rosemary They just feel the same?? Old enough to feel outdated but not old enough for it to be in a charming way, both very popular but I have no particular memories of either... I know the GameCube was the counterpart to the PS2 but the GameCube had way more of its own personality than either the PS2 or the Wii imo

@Trinket @Rosemary what I had in mind was mostly that both of them had really big libraries, and the majority of those libraries were shovelware

@Felthry @Rosemary Yeah!!!! Yeah I was gonna say that but I wasn't sure if I the numbers actually backed it up but that's the majority of what I remember seeing on them lmao

@Trinket @Rosemary I dunno if the numbers quite back it up either, but shovelware seems to have affected those consoles more than most
