Will be interesting to see how the reduced competition changes things.

 

2011 - Skylanders

2012 - Skylanders

2013 - Skylanders & Disney Infinity

2014 - Skylanders & Disney Infinity & Amiibo

2015 - Skylanders & Disney Infinity & Amiibo & LEGO Dimensions

2016 - Skylanders & Amiibo

 

If Skylanders still sees lower sales this year will be the end of the toy-to-life genre. 

2016 still has Lego Dimensions - they are just releasing more expansion packs.  They did not want to do a traditional sequel (new game / portal), but just keep expanding the original game for 3 years.  Having Disney Infinity out of the picture, the popularity of Lego should actually go up.

Here is an article talking about just that:
