"It’s a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they’re like, “Oh my God that’s so cool, I’m gonna go buy it.” So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they’ve showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on.

He's describing a class of consumer that does exist, an impulse buyer.

This thread has already been made.

 I does exist, but not only the Wii suffers from this symptom.
