Actually, I think King makes closer to 1.2-1.4 billion a year. Plus, they have around $700 million in cash.  Only need a few years to make all that back.

Minecraft at least works with Microsofts HoloLens.  And was less than half the amount of money.

Unless Candy Crush dies off like every fad does.

Yea, but they also get the other game and only need less than 4 years to make it back.  Plus now we will probably see Candy Crush everything - movies, Candy Crush Skylanders, etc.

And they have a few other games at King they get.
