Let's compare Model T ford sales to a Honda Civic. Man... Model T's flopped hard... It makes no sense to compare the two and quite frankly that fact that you don't see that is alarming |
Let's compare PS2 and Wii. Are both fads or none or only one? If only one, which one? And if you see one as a fad and the other not, you probably can explain what the differences are.

You are probably the most rational person in this thread so I will discuss with you.
I am not opposed to Ps2 vs Wii comparison. It makes a lot more sense than Ps1 to Wii (because Ps1 to Wii made no sense). As for if both were fads? I would deny Ps2 was a fad. It is still chugging on to this day. I doubt the Wii will be on the market 13+ years. The ps2 also never fizzled out as the Wii did (or else Wii would be near Ps2 levels by now since it was looking to break Ps2 sales at first) which I said is a clear indication of a fad as I've said in my OP

You didn't answer me yet. As you state in your post, there is no real difference between the Wii-fad and the PS2-fad. You assume something about the Wii that is not decided yet and also not important for the definition of a fad or not. You stated yourself, that skateboards are around, although the fad is over. The only small difference between PS2 and Wii is, that the PS2-fad lasted a bit longer, but you made yourself examples of fads that lasted even longer than the PS2-fad. So for no reason you explain you claim the wii is a fad but PS2 is not. You seem not to be very logical about this. You shouldn't let your feelings towards these pieces of plastic come into your arguments.
