What ever happened to the UDraw? Was it bad or did it become immediately defunct because of the Wii U? I mean, it didn't have much gaming potential at all, in opinion, when it came to experience required to play UDraw games, it was below casual; in one of the only actual games for the UDraw, you flicked and shaked to cause earthquakes and use other amazing powers; the actual game you did it in was a game with chibi superheroes, so it was clearly aimed at kids below 10. But, I think it did have lots of gaming potential before it's short life-span ended; imagine a top-down game where you could move with the D-Pad, switch weapons with ABXY, and shoot weapons or throw grenades with, and it had online matches, all on your Xbox 360's big screen.
It didn't sell very well at all. THQ misinterpreted the demand for the Wii version as transferable to the 360 and PS3 and, believing that the lack of similar products on those formats meant it'd have a vast market all to itself, arguably over-charged for the thing.
Had it come about 18 months/2 years before when Art Academy was doing the business it could have ridden that wave, but no dice.
