| ___O_o______ said: just look at furby, or livestrong bracelets. They became adopted very quickly within the market, with a lot of media attention, but they didn't disappear in just a year. They disappeared starting around the 3 year mark. The rate of that disappearance was very rapid, and i think the Wii may end up being like this. |
The difference is in the 3 years of great sales you predict for the Wii while the "fad" lasts, it will sell enough hardware to entice developers to make games for it (it is already happening, just as EA, Capcom, Activision...) and htese games will help maintina a good level of sales whereas Furby and Livestrong were the entire product and did not have the equivalent of games coming out regularly to keep the interest strong.
