I'm looking for a list of products that failed their first go-around on the market. I'm looking to make some sort of rebuttal list for my product. There have been products out there that were similar that didn't work out too well. With a few changes to the design, one which was absolutely never thought of, I feel that I might have something really good. I know when I approach some people, they will say, "Yea I've seen one of those before. They don't work or their a waste of money". I know mines completely different and I will show them why but would also like to point out some other products that failed and are doing very well now.

Some that come to mind are The Snuggie, which was around for over 25 years before someone marketed it the right way and everyone knows how that story turned out. Also, Apple Computers and even Nintendo.

Can anyone come up with a few others?
