They didn't lose interest in those genres, look at the total yearly hardware sales that I provided earlier, there was no massive decline in DS/Wii software which shows there was still active interest in those devices and their software. The sales just became dispersed between more and more titles instead of a select few. In 2007, Guitar Hero III & Rock Band released. In 2008, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, Guitar Hero: World Tour, Rock Band Track Pack, Rock Band Track Pack 2, AC/DC Live: Rock Band Track Pack, Rock Band 2 all released. In 2009, Guitar Hero: Metallica, Guitar Hero: Smash Hits, Guitar Hero: Van Halen, Guitar Hero 5, DJ Hero, Band Hero, The Beatles: Rock Band, Lego Rock Band, Rock Band Country Track Pack, Rock Band Track Pack: Classic Rock, Rock Band: Metal Track Pack all released. As of May 2008 there were 2 instrument games, 1.5 years later there were about 20. Same goes for fitness games, dance games, party games, life simulators. The Imagine series had 6 releases in 2007, another 12 in 2008 & another 14 in 2009. The market got over flooded so each game sold less while the overall sales remained relatively stable. |
Exactly this, they had an ocean of games to choose from not just the select group a few are mentioning, the amount of software sold on the Wii and DS was increasing each year even with individual sales of some of these series differing, this indicates people were stil buying they just didn't stick to one series.
