Right now the ps3 doesn't have a lot of E-rated games, so the wii would be the present choice, but the ps3 would be the choice if you are planning into the future.

stores like EB games still have xbox1 and gc sections. I doubt the PS2 section would dissapear anytime soon considering their are lots of PS2 new releases.

Also Sony didnt pull hardware support for the PS1 until a few years after the PS2 came out. They will likely support the PS2 (atleast hardware wise) for another 2-3 years. And Developers will continuento release games for another 1-2 years at the very least. Besides even if they cut game support today it would still take 2+ years to play though all the best games.
