| 07:37 EDT |  | NTDOY, MSFT, SNE | Videogame makers face the smartphone era, WSJ reports
Videogame stocks are seeing a new catalyst, namely the arrival of new consoles from Nintendo (NTDIY), Sony (SNE) and Microsoft (MSFT), the first since 2006. New new consoles has usually meant new games to play on them. But today, more people are playing games on mobile phones and tablets. There is also new competition for control of the living room, including more capable DVRs and Internet-connected TVs. For some console makers, that may indeed be reason for concern, reports the Wall Street Journal's "Heard on the Street."Reference Link |
