Stadia revelations
https://www.wired.com/story/google-stadia-games-entertainment-collapse/
NEW from me on the failure of Google Stadia:
– Missed initial sales targets by hundreds of thousands
– Tried to take on consoles rather than starting small
– To bring in games like Red Dead, Google spent astronomical sums (tens of millions *each*)Story: https://t.co/po1Epj6NMj
— Jason Schreier (@jasonschreier) February 26, 2021
Just to reiterate the absurdity of this thing: Sources say Google spent tens of millions of dollars — the budgets of some major games — PER Stadia port.
Publishers like Ubisoft and Take-Two were raking it in
