I can't even believe the question of Wii being a "fad" is still being raised. It's an insanely stupid argument if you really think about it..
You either have to believe one of two things;
- either ALL consoles are fads, since they sell and peak for a relatively short time then fade out, or..
- NO consoles are fads, because they all adhere to a predictable cycle of sales.
What makes the Wii any different from other consoles? Because it vastly outsold its competitors and may have peaked earlier then them? Give me a break..
