Hell you can throw flappy bird on there as well.
That's where the major of the focus will be soon...not AAA titles year after year with a few exceptions
The risk is too high for most console projects these days because you have developers thinking they have the formula to take down COD...just like those companies who tried to dethrone WoW and failing miserably.
you named 4 games (flappy bird doesnt count cause it's only popular cause it's not sold anymore)...you know what, i'll include flappy bird...you named 5 outta how many?...that's still the exception not the rule...and even then, 2 outta the 5 are on consoles...and 1, limbo did better one console than phones...so that's 3/4 outta how many?....
only a few AAA titles drop a year now, and they arent the focus of companies on consoles...those are like guaranteed money, they drop, they gonna sell, so companies dont truly focus on them...they focus more on turning a small title into the next AAA....
no, that's not the risk for consoles...you suppose to go at the most popular to try to get that money, so going after cod or wow isnt a problem.....the risk companies face is them thinking big budgets and persistent marketing guarantee AAA status for a game, when that's not the case...the industry fell into the trap of instead of focusing on making good games, they were thinking if they spent enough on the game and marketed the shyt outta it, that it would make people gravitate to that game and make it AAA....but they're learning from their mistakes for the most part...they are making better games but spending less now; and if one catches on, then they throw the big budget on it when making the sequel...
..the best you gonna get is more phone games from companies, but they never gonna kick consoles to the curb....why? cause that AAA money is too strong...hell, the avg console game money is too strong to do that....
