So Disney Infinity was a huge flop and is now CANNED.
DISNEY as a publisher is also being scrapped.
Which is potentially a great thing as they may license their properties out to other developers to make actual games again instead of toys and mobile shit
>>337156850
What? I thought infinity and skylander made lots of money?
>>337156850
>may license their properties out to other developers
Yeah, to EA.
Did it really? Or are you upset about the new toys?

they put so much fucking money and effort into this dumb thing

I came into this thread to say what this anon said
People expecting Marvel-Disney-Capcom like in the 90s are going to be sorely disappointed.
M-M-MAHVEL BABY?
>>337157485
>We have two final retail releases coming, including three new characters from Alice Through the Looking Glass later this month, and the Finding Dory Play Set launching in June.
going out with a bang I see
>>337156850
I liked the figures, though...They were nice. Kind of sucks that they promised a Peter Pan figure but never came through.
How the FUCK can you be so incompetent that you can fail using the 2 biggest franchises in the fucking planet?
>>337157825
EA is honestly better than Marvel putting out NOTHING on pc/console and just making mobile SHIT
>>337157904
Can't wait to pull down those aisles we had for this stuff at best buy
>they never made Goofy
>>337157964
They were pretty smart.
Unlike Smash Series Amiibo which are trying to replicate art too detailed to be able to succeed, Infinity has its own art style optimized for the average figure quality.
>Disney starts licensing out Marvel games to other developers
>yfw Hulk Ultimate Destruction 2
>yfw MAHVEL 4
>now i'll be able to get the figures i wanted at clearance price
>>337158172
Infinity had a great art style that accommodated for a lot of wildly different characters. They all look really appealing because they're designed by competent people, and the figure quality is a lot nicer than amiibo. I just wish they would have done Wall-E and Eve figures.
Well shit. My nephew has a billion of those things. It's a pretty fun game to just dick around in.
He's not gonna like this
The manufacturing runs have stopped
This means a surge in prices. This is where scalping actually means something because it's now rare
>>337158615
Tell him to stock up before the figures skyrocket in prices.
so that means that the figures will be rare, right?
>>337158845
Yeah, the runs have stopped. I'm on my way to buy some now.
>>337158615
Wouldn't shit go on sale to get rid of current stock?
>Goofy never got in
>Darkwing never got in
>>337158845
Yes, Anon
Hurry, go out and buy all the Star Wars ones warming the shelves and the warehouses
get all your ultimate unlocks before it's too late!
>>337159062
nigga I'm not a scalper or falling to the jew shill, I just want to know if I'd still have a chance to get a figure of mywaifus
>>337159032
Infinity flopped BECAUSE Darkwing never got in.
He is the terror that flaps in the night.
He is the industry that rejects your shitty product that lacks crime-fighting duck merchandise.
He is DARKWING DUCK!
>tfw the ultimate unlock in 3.0 was a Keyblade
>tfw we could've gotten Sora and co. in future games
that alone would've made me buy it
>>337159032
Hey, Darkwing didn't get in but that means Mabel didn't either.
>>337159218
If it's a figure that's hard to find it'll be harder to find them as people are buying them up now to scalp later
If it's a shit figure that nobody wants than they'll be in the bargain bin for like a dollar just to get rid of em
>EA is going to have a monopoly, this time on the Disney/marvel licenses
JUST
FUCK
MY
SHIT
UP
>>337158845
not really
I mean they'll be "rare" in the sense that they aren't being made anymore but I'd wager anything that isn't already going for scalper prices right now will cost about as much as a mario amiibo will once those stop being made. IE maybe two bucks more than MSRP at best.
I don't keep up with disney infinity but I know enough to know those things have never really had much of a supply problem.
I'm not surprised that Disney is exiting the console business. The new executive that was managing Epic Mickey 2 never liked console games anyway.
>>337158972
Retailers like Walmart and Target have been carrying shittons of these figures. They're going to have to start marking down the prices in the coming months just so they can get rid of them.
We lost the following
>Nostalgia bait
>Cape shit
>Post prequels-Starwars
>>337159406
>the meme show won't be able to force itself into mainstream and much like Infinity is now dead forever
Thank god.
>flavor of the month characters got in before you
>your best friend got in
>>337159794
Pete got in?
>>337157041
pretty sure skylanders does. weird that the same thing with marvel, star wars and disney characters get blown out.
>>337157825
Welp, time to prepare for Rise of the Imperfects 2.
So are these games actually good and if so do I have to buy all those four billion figures just to fuckin play it
I'm half considering picking up the latest one and my niggas luke skywalker and spiderman but I can not be assed to consider pretty much anything else.well maybe mulan that was a cool movie.
>>337159905
>Pete
PJ, try to uphold the family IQ.
Huh, I thought it was selling well.
>>337156850
NINTENDO WINS AGAIN BABY
>>337160087
>Didn't even come to the barbecue sending Max off to college
Either he's dead or they fell out with each other dude
>>337160120
Yeah, I think it's less Infinity did bad and more Disney just doesn't feel like making video games any more.
>>337160309
Maybe they'll just go for max profit mobile games.
>>337159993
It dosent look to good for skylanders either.
And actually DI dominated skylanders by a huge margin in sales(both soft and hardware).
This is just the beginning of the end of the Toys 2 Life fad and other step towards the death of the "casual" gaming market in general.
>>337159032
>tfw they canceled that Darkwing Duck comic
GOOD
I WILL NEVER FORGIVE THEM FOR NOT GETTING DARKWING DUCK IN
I WOULD EVEN HAVE TAKEN MABEL, OVER ANOTHER NORMIE UGUU PRINCESS
>>337160427
>I WOULD EVEN HAVE TAKEN MABEL
but then you'd be crying that darkwing didn't get in anyway
>>337160427
Mabel was winning by a huge margin in the poll.
The poll also featured Mulan, Kim Possible, Cruella DeVil and The Hunchback.
I'm pretty sure Cinderella was the only "normie uguu princess" in that poll.
>>337160420
If I recall, they never agreed to let them do a Ducktales/Darkwing Duck crossover, so they cancelled it because it was in violation of their contract with Boom.
>>337160120
If I had to guess it's not that it wasn't making money, it's that it wasn't making enough.
I really wish they'd at least try to get a goofy figure out before calling it quits though
>>337160219
Amiibos are dying. They haven't re-released shit in a long time. And there's barely anything releasing. If they don't announce new stuff by the next direct consider them out too.
>>337160309
DI costed a shitload of money.
Disney put 100million + into every entry and it seems they lost 150 million on money they already invested in DI4
>>337159993
Kids don't want grandpa's heros. They want their own.
>>337160879
>If they don't announce new stuff

>>337160879
Didn't they recently announce the squid things?
There's also another Kirby line and more Animal Crossing. Japan goes nuts over those.
>>337160420
They revived it again. First issue just came out a couple weeks ago.
>>337157825
So? EA gave us MUA 1 and 2, no?
