Something like THPS did so well simply because it also allowed the Platform gamers to get involved.
Personally, I think a sim inline game would be fun, but I don't see it even remotely hitting a Platinum status in sales.
And that's the wrong thing we are doing. We want Sim games to have platinum status in sales. The problem is there, but since money makes the world go round, well, things now are how they should be.
