I still think it's a fad.
Whilst Nintendo keeps bringing out quality after quality (forget pokemon battle revolution), not many other developers have latched onto the wii yet with their games. Whether or not they knew if it would sell in the beginning, Nintendo were quite arrogant in that they didn't sign on any new big name 3rd party exclusives before launch.
Sony had a couple of things in the bag (AC comes to mind, remember it was meant to be exclusive at one point) and MS obviously had Gears.
It's a fad because outside of the core market, how many people still pick up and play their Wii's after the initial fun with wii sports, carnival games (I use the term "fun" loosely), mario kart and raving rabbids?
My Wii collects dust until the next big Ninty game, and it's been doing so for about a year now, obviously that'll change, but right now that seems like a fad to me.
