PS2 has a way bigger library than SNES/Genesis/Saturn/Dreamcast and it can play PS1 games. And Genesis, Dreamcast, Neo Geo etc games have been ported to it. Early PS3 that can play 1, 2 and 3 is the (game-wise) best console out there due to the sheer number of games it can play.
Pragmatically speaking, it's sheer lunacy to pick any other console than PS2 for the simple fact that it will keep you entertained the longest time and even though whether you prefer PS2 exclusives to SNES or Genesis exclusives is a matter of taste, I'd say that the PS2 has a larger number of excellent games than SNES or Genesis. And once again, it can play PS1 games, ton of great games on that one.
