I think it will be a few years before the rest of the business catches on, but I actually think he is right about this. If you spend 100s of Millions on a game, you need to make money on it. It’s not some cheap thing you can use as a loss leader to sell some hardware. Winning the console war is no longer as smart of business as it was in past decades.
You have to look at the other platforms as retail partners instead of competitors. Game budgets are way too big to justify exclusivity in 2024.
