That's because they make niche games with a dedicted following, THQ with a load of casual tie in stuff suffered heavily from the weak ecconomy. The more casual consumers are more likely to cut back than core gamers. 

That's rubbish. If casual consumers get hit by the economy, they don't need to cut back much on their video game spendings, because those were not big to begin with. On the other hand, a core gamer needs to take drastic measures and will buy several games less than usual per year.

What's likely to have hit THQ is that their cartoon and movie tie ins became of lesser quality over the years which eventually lost them consumers. Even kids learn to stay away from trash and opt for other games, because they are limited to just a handful per year.

Were those games ever of good quality??
