We will likely end up with five major gaming publishers in the future that will rule the entire industry.
I've been telling people for years now that big tech is going to buy out gaming like they're doing with television and movies.
Like them or not but Sony is really the only bastion left against Big Tech's invasion of gaming. It's something they've been fighting against since 2001.
Microsoft was literally trying to buy out the industry.
Apple will follow if they win against the DOJ. Amazon, Netflix, and maybe even Nvidia will follow suit. And for the most part none of these companies are interested in a local device, with maybe the exception of Apple.
Maybe Tencent will foster local gaming too. I could definitely see a Tencent console if they buy Ubisoft.
