The Wii was not a fucking fad, it was a games console that lived a healthy 5 years and sold 100 million units. If you call the Wii a fad, you have to call any console that has lasted 5 years a fad. Basically, either ALL consoles are fads or none are. You cannot have your cake and eat it too, hardcore. |
The wii was a fad, don't get me wrong it was a wonderful console. But the difference between the 100 million the ps2 sold and the 100 million the wii sold is gamers purchased the ps2 while grandparents, work offices, hospital offices, parents who don't game and girlfriends who don't game purchased the wii.
The one thing I give the wii credit for is it was a HUGE ice breaker, you bring a girl over to converse about life and play wii and the ice is immediately broken. lol
