Hmmmm. I still expect people to get tired of gimmicky dance mat games.
Well Fads are something that becomes massive very quickly then die out.
Doesn't work like that in the Gaming world.
Gameboy... was a massive fad... fad died down but Gameboy still remained as one of the best selling games consoles.
Mario was a fad, movie, cartoons etc... fad died but we still get on average 2 Mario games a year and they still hit the top ten every time if not number 1.
Pokemon was a fad... everyone loves Pokemon then it died down but It still sold 4 million late last year.
Fad don't die in gaming world... they just become another part of it.

Yeah most fads carry on in a diminished way, doesn't stop them from being fads though.

Yeah but then therefore it isn't really a FAD now is it...
Sure like cel-shading and light guns everyone does it and then when the popularity dies only a few do it... but they do carry on.
We still get Time Crisis and House of the Dead despite the other 100 plus light gun games dissapearing into nothing...
It starts as a Fad and then becomes an actual genre of game.

A fad that has managed to last 4 years.
True enough.
Seems a bit of a trivial use of the licence though.

Meh. It's something different, 'A break from the norm'.
I did and it made me think 'fad'. :S
