That old fitness game failed because it took place before Wii Fit broke the 1 million barrier for fitness games. Then it broke the 5 million barrier. Then the 10 million barrier. Nintendo has proven that a really good fitness game can sell 10 million. This means there is now a HUGE vacuum. Everybody wants to make the next Wii Fit. There will be tons of fitness games. Maybe a couple of them will break a million before the next Nintendo fitness game comes out.

This is exactly what happened when Nintendogs created the Petz genre and when Brain Training created the brain training genre. We get all kinds of Horsez and Hamsterz games and Big Brain Academy and Brain Blast games. Some of them make money. They are now successful profitable genres.
