A few years back, I invested in a video gaming platform that was a little different. To play it, you had to get off the couch, fling your arms around, jump, balance and more. I continued to buy into new games and gadgets that even allowed me to be a rock star.

But then it had pretty much ended, and my choices were to invest in a new console capability or just make the switch to a different platform. Video games evolved, and nobody wanted a platform stuck in the past or unsupported by the manufacturer.
