Consoles lives can be pretty darn interesting.

The PS2 was like Metallica, which toured forever, was a huge success, but never had a number one single.

The Wii is like the Spice Girls, which lasted only a few years but was at the top of the world during that time and broke a lot of records.

They might not have had a #1, but they had 6 #1 albums, including two that were for 4 weeks and one that was for 3 weeks. Also, their self-titled album is the best selling in the Soundscan era, more than any other album an any genre.

I know.  That's why I said "huge success" and compared them to the best selling console of all time.
