Forums - Gaming - What franchises won't transition into next generation well?

I the dance and fitness genres will fade with the next consoles. Just Dance sees most of it's popularity from the Wii SKU, but since Wii is pretty much kaput at this point, I think Just Dance and most of it's popularity dies with it.

I think Kinect 2.0 could be the next home for the fitness/dance gamers, if it works really smoothly this time. Microsoft probably will even offer cheaper upfront + subscription models which might sway quite a few of them.



Around the Network

Battlefield. Madden or something else.



On the down:

Wii Series (unless really re-invented)
