Dudes right on everything. People don't want the wiiu, ninty did do a shit job marketing it. Its not the job of retailers to market products. Shit bestbuy had $220 and $250 wiiu bundles here, that's how desperate they were to rid them self's of stock. Wii was a fad and its generally accepted as such, get over it accept it its reality. Why cant people just accept that ? what's so wrong with accepting the truth of the product or stating it, mainstream picked it up like one sold like it and became irrelevant as one.

 

From VGC data, Wii still selling and sold extremally well on 5 years. Fad is ''a thing that becomes very popular in a short amount of time, and then is forgotten at about the same speed.'' I dont think 5 years is a fad... Also why can't you accept that the Wii outsold hard the ps3 and 360? People just cant go on that Nintendo was the winner of last gen... Back in some years ago, comparing ps2 to ps3 shows that ps3 was a fad too... No one wrote bash articles/comments calling it a fad as long I rembember....

 

LoL where the hell did i deny the fact it out sold them ?? yahh no where.  Ninty won the sales last gen and..... 

But it was a fad waggle was a fad, waggles irrelevance in gaming now shows waggle was a fad.  There is no set time for a fad, some last short other plod along for a few years as the wii did but they all become irrelevent as wii and waggle has. soe fads last a year liek waring stupid clothing whiel huge ricer wings on cars lasted nearly a decade.

How are PS2 to PS3 sales anywhere similar with wii and wiiu ???  Wiiu will be luckly to sale 20m, selling one fifth of the wii compared to Ps3 selling + half of PS2.  I guess you dont see a difference there ? so this is almost pointless, but stop being foolish making baseless analogies that make no sense just to defend a fad.  Wii sold great but it sold due to it being a fad.
