| JEMC said: The console market is a hard and tricky one. Money and brand name not always mean much and publishers are usually reluctant to support new platforms until the install base is large enough... and sometimes not even after that. Whatever Google plans to do, they should take this as a marathon, and don't expect to win from the start just because they're Google. |
First year or 2 they should really be open to paying full port cost of the game and some profit for the devs. As if they were the publisher. Then whatever sells is their. Until devs and pubs are confident enough they can release by themselves on a steady rhythm.
