Quoted from fnosm:Having read the book and seen both of the movies I am surprised that a book is even contemplated as a toy for this machine. Most of the story in the movies isn't in the book. I would have thought the licensor would have wanted to distance itself as far as possible from the book to avoid obvious and unflattering comparisons.
If people are such big fans of The Hobbit that they're complaining about the movie, they're either such big fans that they'll want to play the machine, or they're such book snobs that they won't touch anything related to the movies.
Plus, "The Hobbit" book is written by Bilbo in the story, so it makes sense.
