Oh, there's a niche market for them, sure, which is nicely offset by the next to nothing budgets of these.
Where people are fooling themselves, I see, is this idea that some kind of Final Fight clone/Turtles in Time Again new TMNT game in 2017 is going to put TMNT back on the map with video games and video gamers at large. It's not, not remotely. It's going to placate the people in their 30s and 40s that miss that soothing "simpler time" where it was OK that every game was a 2-button Final Fight knockoff. It'd make a modest profit, but nothing to write home about and would connect with exactly 0% of newer, younger video gamers. Maybe as a cell phone game with at least a little bit of substance to it.
