Not really, given that developers eventually ignore them. The best games on Nintendo consoles tend to not depend on their gimmicks.

No, I love that shit. I don't care if it sells, keep it coming.

Yes, it was a fad that worked for a couple of years but casuals quickly latched onto their next thing which is iPhones.

I mean even Sony realized this by dropping their not-wiimote control scheme.

Microsoft tried to bring back and force the Kinect but it was quickly dropped after they saw how bad it was hurting the console.

Meanwhile Nintendo is still trying to stay relevant with shitty gimmicks that no one gives a fuck today.

Handheld / console hybrid

The only real gimmick that would be acceptable today.

It was literally just one guy/jan who had a massive hard on for Nintendo. He is either dead or is on at nights who knows.
