Example of organizations that were supposed to peddle the 'Next Chess'. 
Here are some.  Study from these and explain how a new organization would
be different:
1. FEMDAM.  This organization pushed Modern Chess:

They had a run during the 1970s and disappeared.

2. The Name that shall not be named.  This is the patented version of the
Capablanca chess games.  How is that doing now?  How does a game that
ticks off the CV website stand a chance of having any success?

Other ones out there, and various commercial games.  How are they doing
and how have they done?  Contrast that to Bughouse and Chess960, which
don't have organizations promoting them.  They still grow and have a
following.  These have done better than the other two.

On the commercial front, Navia Dratp comes to mind as another game that
maybe could replace normal chess.  Why is it no longer in production?
