Hell, by numbers alone, the PS2 has more 'kiddy' games. Now, to the debunking:
Dragon Ball Z is headed by the PS2, the Gamecube only has a port of the original Budokai. Pokemon is the largest selling series in a long time, and they'd be utterly stupid not to run with it. Pikmin is genius itself, Yu-Go-Oh! isn't made by Nintendo and only appears on the GBA (along with GTA, too.) Sonic is Sega, who now work for everyone, Mario is the most recognisable character in the world today and Donkey Kong has had two games to himself this generation.
Before you rant, get a clue. Perhaps you've failed to notice the fact that the Resident Evil series was signed on for Cube? That the Nintendo-published Eternal Darkness is one of the darkest, most mindfucking games around? That Geist involves possessing people against their will and causing them to shoot their comrades?
Probably not. The darker titles don't sell as well as the family titles. Think for a minute here, and pull your finger out. Their biggest sellers are family titles. They're often a lot more fun than 'mature' titles, higher quality and last longer. Why on earth wouldn't they make them?
Oh, and Dragon Ball Z:Budokai is a PS2-first series. Refer above.
