No guitar hero. Less interest in guitar. The demographic that played the guitar is getting old and dying off.

The wheels grind slowly, but exceedingly fine. The British Invasion is frequently credited with firing the fatal torpedo (in the form of the electric guitar) into the hobby industry and ultimately sinking it… albeit slowly. Looks like the world of "let's pretend" on hand-held electronic devices is returning the favor.

Do you mean coin collecting, model building and so forth?

Let’s see them do something comparable to Voodoo Child (a slight return) on one of those.
