Trip Hawkins should just make his own console if he feels so restricted then.

Oh wait, he actually did, and it failed horribly.

What system was that?

The 3DO.

And guess what?  It had licensing fees too!

(The fees were lower than the ones from Nintendo or Sega, but third parties didn't care because no one wanted to buy a $700 console.)

So he doesn't know economics and it blaming two of the top companies. This is sadly too common in the gaming industry.
