These days we tend to hear about the doom and gloom surrounding sales of particular gaming consoles. Moreover, some believe that traditional games could be on their way out due to the rise of mobile devices.
If you were to ask Electronic Arts chief operating officer Peter Moore about the situation, he’d tell you that consoles are here to stay. Speaking with Bloomberg TV, Moore noted that “The demise of console gaming is very premature as far as we’re concerned.”
He said:
“The console business is still a core part of our business; it’s the majority of our business. The demise of console gaming is very premature as far as we’re concerned. …And so, people still want core games. People want to sit back in their living rooms, take advantage of their HD TVs, and and play fully immersive games like [Battlefield 4].”
This week’s ESRB updates are as follows:
Mega Man 4 (3DS) – E
Resident Evil: Revelations (Wii U) – M
Fast & Furious: Showdown (3DS) – T
The Smurfs 2 (Wii U) – T
Interesting Fast & Furious rating there… I suppose Showdown will be coming to the 3DS as well.
Toriko: Gourmet ga Battle will be released in Japan on July 4 for 5,980 yen.
