I counted 10, though doubt many of those are coming over probably why I haven't heard of them.  Having one dev studio on mobile isn't the problem.  Throwing your entire company into mobile is.

Agreed and that was actualy the point I was trying to make. It's not an either/or scenario. SE actually have quite a well-balanced output on consoles, PC and mobiles. Konami pushing strongly into the mobile sector shouldn't be impacting on their other gaming segments in the way it has been. It's horrible mis-management considering the strength their franchises hold (or held considering they've let most of them fall to the wayside).

That's sort of what I was trying to get at.  Square Enix threw everything into mobile last gen (3 console titles from the Square side I count last gen).  They realized there's no longevity in it so they scaled back and are balancing.  It's what most of the publishers are doing.  EA stopped pouring money into mobile after a very good Mass Effect and a so so Dead Space.  Rovio's losing money cause people moved on from Angry Birds.  Draw Something?  Draw Nothing!  Mobile is good for pocket change now.  I guess Konami is gonna figure this out the hard way.
