The game apparently pushed publisher Mad Catz from a profit into a $11 million dollar loss single handedly. They are now stuck with $8+ million of unsold inventory that they have to get rid of before September. Ouch.
People are not interested in revisting the fads of 8-10 years ago, new Brain Training, new Wii Fit, new Rock Band, new Kinect Sports, new Wii Sports (Club), all basically flopped while Nintendogs + cats at launch did zilch for the 3DS other than lead it to Nintendo having to take their first loss ever.
These games aren't even able to put up even decent numbers, they are mostly just full on bombs and it's not a quality issue as they are equal/better in quality to previous installments in most cases.
