Loser.

>Disney is putting an end to their Disney Infinity toy-game line and discontinuing their “self-published console games business,” the company said today. After June, Infinity will stop getting new updates.

>Disney is also shutting down Avalanche Software, the Utah-based studio responsible for Infinity. As a result, around 300 people will lose their jobs. “This was a difficult decision that we did not take lightly given the quality of Disney Infinity and its many passionate fans,” Disney said in a statement.

>There will be two new Disney Infinity releases in May and June before the series ends for good: one based on Alice Through The Looking Glass, and a second from Finding Dory.

>“Our goal for Disney Infinity was to bring the best of Disney storytelling to life in homes around the world, and with your support we accomplished that,” GM John Blackburn wrote on their blog. “We hope you had as much fun playing the game as we had making it."

That last sentence right there is literally grade-school tier levels.

Comparing anything to Amiibos isn't fair though since the people that buy Amiibos have actual, legit autism and seemingly infinite funds. The people that buy Amiibos don't even use them in games, they just collect them. Disney Infinity on the other hand was mostly appealing to kids who owned the games.

>>82640924
Never going to happen, man. It'll take Perlmutter retiring alongside a drastic shift away from his style of business in Marvel Entertainment, and by that time, Capcom might not even still be alive as a company. They can only ride on Monster Hunter hype for so long, and Street Fighter V isn't causing the third wave of fighting game hype like they'd hoped.

Here is a quote from Disney's last quarterly report on the subject. remember, Disney had their best quarter ever last quarter with a 3 billion dollar profit. And this is what they had to say about the Disney Infinity

>At Games, growth was due to higher licensing revenue from the success of Star Wars: Battlefront, partially offset by lower Disney Infinity results. The decrease from Disney Infinity was due to higher inventory reserves and lower unit sales volume. The decrease at Retail was due to lower comparable store sales and margins in Europe and North America as well as at our online business in North America, reflecting strong sales of merchandise based on Frozen in the prior-year quarter, partially offset by current quarter sales of Star Wars merchandise.

So basically, the supply was greater than the demand.
>>
>>82640779
I think the fact that if you had the marvel set and you wanted any Star wars characters you had to go out and rebuy the damn thing. Making a customer rebuy a 60+ set is in advisable if you ask me

It was only a matter of time that they would end it. As nice as the figures were, there were too many stupid characters and the ones that they did make they OVERWHELMED the pegs at stores. The walmart I went to the other day had an entire endcap full of SW characters. And by characters I mean a single character. Tons and tons of the same character. You're going to make infinite figures of a character no one wants and have them shelfwarm on the clearance rack years after the game has ended you're just asking for the whole thing to blow up in your face. Is there a child out there that tells his parents " I sure do hope I can buy Poe Dameron to go with my Mater and Yondu figures!"?

They could have made a killing on making the figures alone as a sort of FUNKO-pop like brand, because I would have totally bought Ahsoka or some random Marvel figure if it was larger and not bundled for a ded game.

How do you even fuck up a toy selling brand when you have every fucking series known to man under your jurisdiction? Star Wars, Disney, and Marvel universes and you still fuck that up.

Its kind of sad that this is the only decent Orange Buttcheeks Figure we're ever going to get.

The fact that Iger and his investors said that a licensing model would be better shows that it's not a matter of meeting profit but not getting enough profit they want

You're right. Although they did for some of them. Finn and Rey, Luke and Leia, Kylo Ren, The Avengers based characters from Cap to Nick Fury to Loki, Jack Sparrow, Mickey Mouse etc.

It was all those characters that were either very minor in their property or from a failing property that brought everything down. Toys based on characters like the Lone Ranger ones, or the Tron ones or Poe Dameron from Force Awakens.

Doesn't matter. Game sold 14 million copies. That's 840 Million dollars in revenue. Obviously, Disney doesn't get all of that between Sony, Microsoft, EA, DICE and retailers but they get a nice slice of that and that's not accounting for DLC for characters like Lando or the Jakku pack or skins and all the other extra money. They don't care how many people are playing it now, they already got their money.

They released sales figures last December. Infinity was in the lead, Skylander behind them, then Amiibo, then Dimensions a distant fourth.

It made a 1.4 BILLION dollar profit last year. With a fucking B.

according to Disney, they want to get Marvel back into the AAA game scene now that people have had a long enough break that they're craving some hero sims again.

so they're downsizing all their benchwarmer projects to redirect staff and funds towards the big titles they have planned

A better question is did we need the Tron characters? Disney hasn't given a fuck about Tron since 2012 but there they were in 2014 getting figurines. And take a wild guess which franchise had the lowest Disney Infinity sales?

I know it's not ideal, but at least it breeds competition which theoretically keeps game prices down at $60 and improves what games are released. It just so happens that if you only own 1 system you can't play all of those games.
>>
>>82640282
Either Lego or Amiibos (as only 3 new characters are left unless they want to make Amiibos of the clones/other outfits and Koopa Kids which they should, also extra characters in the NX version of Smash) are next.

Doubt Skylanders will get killed off next.

That new comic is published by Joe Books, not BOOM. Disney's new policies about its licensed comic books mean IDW's ones will have no digital release at all, while the Joe Books ones have little chance of getting digital releases at all (but not on CMX, B&N, or their own website).

Just thought I'd pop in to post this since this is a /co/ vidya related thread
An Infamous rerelease for PS4 was spotted on Amazon and might be announced by Sony themselves at E3 next month, what's interesting is that there seems to be a mentioning of a beta for a Spiderman Homecoming game, now it's not confirmed who's making the Spiderman game but maybe there might be talks of SIE/SCE working with the Marvel license

When I did try the first one, I was somewhat pissing him off nitpicking a bunch of the invisible walls and design flaws. It was mainly because how hyped he was and hearing how much money Disney put into it.

I don't think liking a movie and maybe the actual animation team automatically includes liking the executives and ultra-jews behind the conference tables.

Everybody knows what they are, as if buying a fucking news station, random media firms, a fucking lobby in the US government and enforcing draconian IP license leashes beyond what's legal on consumers didn't make that clear enough.

That's not what happened.

Dart and Abe were gonna come after Zeus and Isaac.

And Sony cut off the developers from working on the game (but they didn't shut them down technically).

In retrospect, it was such a dumb idea to cut them off after only a month after the game's launch, because months later it actually did end up being successful enough for them.
