| curl-6 said: Like with Ring Fit Adventure, a forum full of "hardcore" gamers like us really isn't the game's target audience, so a poll here won't give an accurate cross section of its market appeal. |
The business model of these RC toys isn't as lucrative as you might think.
As I mentioned before the Anki company had to close down after their successful launches.

Ring Fit Adventure is an interactive workout video that has been successful in the past, fitness sells.
Maybe the Mario name can pull a one-off miracle, but I would not expect a continued effort in this respect. These toys are a niche market due to their elevated costs; and do not really add anything wrt to the video game they simulate irl, rather they take away.
