My god, Trump the Game sold over 5 million copies and can no longer be found in stores; amazing, just amazing.

Block Buster was successful for decades. Likewise BetaMax is still in use, just not for retail movie distribution.

I tried Orbitz; it wasn't bad. Chinese and Japanese beverage makers still produce varieties of drinks with gelatinous balls floating around.

Fluoride toothpaste is a failure?

I remember orbitz, god that stuff had a terrible texture.

Blak Coke Matters

Yeah, I can't really see including Blockbuster on the list.
I thought I remembered trying Orbitz in 1996, though. Once.

Yeah, Blockbuster wasn't really a failure. They were hugely successful for a while and the market simply changed. Blaming Blockbuster for losing out to streaming is like blaming the horse and buggy for losing out to the automobile.

Orbitz is still around..so I don't think that classifies as a failure...maybe THERE.

"HahahahAHAH! You stupid steam engine! Where are you now, you big loser! Hahahahahaha!"

holy crap, Twitter Peak? $200 for a device that only sends tweets? I mean, even if smartphones weren't massive by that time, this is still a horribly stupid device with a ridiculous price.

Me too!

No love for Crystal Pepsi?

That list was kinda asinine. Blockbuster? Really?

Fluoride was once heralded as the savior to cleaner, whiter, healthier teeth. However after the Swedish Dental Association came out with a report casting doubt on the effects of fluoride (and raising some health concerns), consumers stopped scooping up fluoride toothpaste.

Very interesting
