| mike_intellivision said: I think the argument that KGB made is close to how Trip Hawkins tried to sell the 3DO. That did not have a long shelf life. Why should we only one type of console? We have different types of cars. A minivan and a Ferrari have very little in common -- except both will get you from Point A to Point B burning gasoline (petrol) on four tires (tyres). A single console world as described by Squilliam might be great for many gamers, but had such a world existed, we would have no Wii. It is doubtful the market expands. It is doubtful we have motion control. Monopolies tend not to be innovative because they don't have to be. Oligopolies (which we have in most industries) tend to be innovative because it is the only way to win market share. Mike from Morgantown |
