What I find confusing about Epic's approach is taking on Google at the same time. It seems like you'd have some leverage at forcing Apple to the table if you were exclusive on Google, for instance -- and then, after winning, you could be exclusive on Apple for a while to cut a similar deal with Google.
All your leverage comes from kids wanting to only have a device that plays their favorite game where they hang out with their friends.
- s_dev 6y agoI think Epic are going to announce a new piece of hardware in the coming months. A phone that can play many games in their library. Both Google and Apple are trash at games and Epic know this. Theres a lucrative niche.
- selectodude 6y agoIs it going to be called "Nintendo Switch"? Because Fortnite is on there, plays really well, and I'm not sure what Epic is going to bring to the table to outclass it.
- redisman 6y agoFree games? That's what they do on PC. Nintendos biggest weakness on it's handhelds since the beginning has been almost no sales (as in Steam sales).
- selectodude 6y agoNintendo never puts their games on sale but Fortnite is free, plenty of games go on sale all the time, and Epic is welcome to add to that list of free and discounted games if they're so inclined.
