Yeah. I'm aware of that. I was more implying that near the end of the run of the NES and PS, they were mostly just releasing more of the consoles instead of the games. I wasn't saying that PS2 is more successful than the NES or PS overall, but actually meant that PS2's last years might be more productive and lead to a fair amount of games. Afterall, it has taken about 5 years for a console to be released that is drastically more powerfull than the last generation (there was a 3-year difference when the Genesis was released to compete with the NES). Considering the myriad of different consoles and add-ons that were released during the early to mid-90's, I can see why Nintendo wouldn't focus their efforts on NES games (which is probably another reason that mostly only re-modelled NES's were being sold). Seeing as how there hasn't been quite as much hardware compared to that in the 90's, and my aforementioned comment about the longer wait for a next-gen console, I figure PS2 should be able to provide new games for a longer period of time than the NES had (as opposed to mostly just providing services and re-designed hardware). Again, though, I didn't mean to imply that the PS2 is the most successful.
