>Disney Infinity did so bad it made the game studio shut down

What the fuck went wrong?

Well, the figures look nothing like the actual movie characters.

Not sure if that contributed to them being unpopular, but it probably didnt help either.

The gameplay was probably shit too. Maybe I'm just too old to see the appeal, but Skylanders / Lego Universe, Disney Infinity all just looks like one big mario party minigame where you run around collecting coins, and it's literally impossible to die.

Lego Dimensions is next
>>
A studio with shit video game experience, jumps onto an over saturated market with nothing new and innovative, and crashes.

wow. so crazy
>>
They didn't make any Kingdom Hearts ones besides that one Mickey

Disney treats videogames as merchandise where they think any shit with their brands/IPs on it are gold.

So they get stomped all over by actual videogame companies.
>>
kinda want to get a few of these figures, dont even have the game

ultron and venom look cool

Are the servers going down too? I actually enjoyed this to a degree. It wasn't amazing or anything but it was kind of fun to dick around with.
>>
game was so awful even little kids didn't like it.

Disney is fucking retarded when it comes to video games.

They can literally become even richer by releasing another Marvel Vs. but they refuse to do so.

I hate to agree with you, but it's 100% true.
Any time I ever played a disney game, I got the impression that the creators never played a video game in their lives, and got all their information about what video games are by watching people play them on TV show sitcoms.

Infinity made over $500 million in one year.

That wasn't enough for the jew overlords at Disney.
>>
>>337507974
You'd think that with all that IP they would be able to do something cool. Why do we have to be the universe that gets Infinity?

It made a shit ton of money.

but Disney wanted a fuck ton of money.

take your capeshit outta here kids

I got the impression that their beancounters made a shitload of growth predictions, and when the toys to life market flattened out it scewd all of that and they decided to drop it for underperforming.

It might have well been profitable, but, muh growth.
>>
Stores were trying to get rid of 2.0 stock months before 3.0 even came out. You think there's a lot of Amiibos, but the Infinity figures dwarf their amount easily.

Doesn't help that 99 percent of 3.0 figures in all the stores around here were the new Star Wars movie ones and little of anything else.
>>
>>337510183
the point of buying star wars was to make a trillion dollars. since that didn't happen, star wars will be killed off after they shit out this trilogy
>>
Actually it's just that Disney weren't making ENOUGH of a profit and licensing deals would make more money
