I would think it's obvious.  The big 3 have a vested interest in keeping their consoles/handhelds relevant, which they can enforce via their 1st parties.  3rd parties are under no such constraints, nor do they face severe financial impact if the consoles/handhelds flounder/fail. 

I mean what does that have to do with what we're talking about? You said you don't see why anyone would care. To which I said that an increasing amount of funds that would normally go to producing ambitious console games, are now going to producing shallow money grab F2P games on mobile.

I still don't see why anyone would care.  AAA/Indie games on console/PC are not slowing down, if anything, they're increasing (as are mobile games).  Just like economy vehicles vs luxury, or fine dining vs fast food, one does not cancel out the other.

The casual realm is far bigger than the dedicated hardcore market that it easily trumps both the console and PC markets, as far as things go the mobile market is going to be like this until the bubble pops. I don't think it's sad though because I knew from the beginning that the casual market will always outnumber the dedicated, this planet just has way more people who just want simple things in life, even simpler and much cheaper than a console.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
