If you allow me my comment, I dare to say D&D has got a special adventage. It can be played by members from different generations. Here itself there are parents telling they are playing with their own children.
And Hasbro's strategy, I have said several times, is D&D to become a multimedia franchise, to sell different products. Let's remember a webcomic about Drizzt's D'ourden's daughter is going to be published.
We shouldn't be too surprised if some videogame studio recycles a no-CRPG to a D&D no-CRPG, for example a colony-building game whose characters are halflings and gnomes, with a kid-friendly look.
And always there are players who want to choose a classic class-specie combo, to feel they are different. It is like the fashion waves. When everybody wears the same clothing style of certain urban tribe then it stops to be popular.
Some class or specie could be "forgotten" until this appeared in a fiction work. For example druids are more popular thanks the action-live movie. Now the D&D bards are meme machines. Elves were popular thanks Legolas in "Lord of the Rings" movies. Orcs are suffering a redesign caused by World of Warcraft.
