Was the Wii a fad?

uhm..  that's funny, as far as I remember you guys were "expecting" it to behave very much like the PS2 in sales at that time, just at a way higher lvl

I must have missed the posts that said it was going to struggle to hit the 100m mark before its successor is released between all the 200m+ predictions.

The Wii really was on track to sell higher than the PS2. Unfortunately, the ball was really dropped. And you must not be remembering correctly, because the 200+ mil predictions were ridiculous and only a small amount of people actually expected that.

Either way this is besides the point.

If I remember correctly, both john lucas and Avinash (had a sheep as avatar) believed that.Was there anyone else?
