Back when it launched I literally saw a TV news channel demoing it as part of a "Christmas gadgets" segment call it a peripheral for the Wii. They also called Skylanders a board-game.

When you got a fountain of money by getting boomers into gaming, flubbing the branding of the sequel is a massive own-goal.
