You cant release a quality game like a full 3D mario, Epic Metroid adventure, full scale Mario Kart on mobile. Mobile games are just that. Mobile games. It's a great great compliment, as are the themeparks, merchandise and the definate forthcoming series/movies/cartoons that will come. They will continue to make consoles and games for consoles as long as they make a profit and as long as there is a market for these games. |
Something that I think a lot of people who say "go full mobile" don't take into consideration is that when you have a big hit on mobile (especially something that's social and free to try), it's not like a typical console title that dies down in popularity after a month or two; it's something that makes profit for years. Like you said, If they went full mobile, they'd quickly end up oversaturating the market and cannibalizing their own sales so all they'd need is to churn out enough games to maintain a presence while adjusting that amount depending on how many hits they currently have. They wouldn't need to go full mobile to accomplish that -- especially with the lower production costs of mobile games.
