Other games are focusing on casual fun and accessibility and those won't never return to that popularity either. The craze is over and and games that merely refine the formula aren't going to reignite that. But, personally, I'd love to see some good educational music games. There are tons of non-game music teaching programs, that (no offense) are universally horrible. And there are polished and fun games like Rock Band that have minimal educational value. I'd eager to see someone combine the best of both. I doubt that the music genre will ever return to its 2007 peak popularity.
