Clumsy old video games?

The PS2 was probably the last great console tho. This generation of games has been uniformly boring, at least to me. It might just be that most of the new games are either very North America-centric (as in, most of the RPGs are WRPG as opposed to JRPG, most of the other non-sports games are FPS titles) and I'm just not a big fan of Western-style games. The only console that isn't almost totally like this is the Wii, which suffers because of its gimmicky controller. News flash Nintendo: IT DOESN'T WORK FOR 80% OF GAMES! So yeah, for me, it's mostly just this current generation that I can't get into. Last generation was pretty good, but not my favorite. Genesis/CD x SNES x TG CD is probably my favorite console war, tho I'm also partial to late period PS1/early period PS2 x Dreamcast x Gamecube, tho the GC is the weak link there (same w/ PS1 x Saturn x N64, which is even worse for me since I'm not a huge fan of the Saturn).
