squatch22 posted...Does he really need to reassure them? Are the investors that stupid that they think new consoles start with an install base of 50 million and that old console games will suddenly stop selling? Are they new to gaming at all?
Yes they do and they are.
And even if they weren't it is a way of covering your rear because you can always go back and say "I pointed it out, highlighted and told you about this back then...".
Investors are like any other person who may have no or limited knowledge on the subject. They have to be fed, even if it comes off as common sense, these kind of things.
Sure, a percentage may be smarter than that but to cover your bases you might as well do it.
Otherwise you end up being inept like Ubisoft with the whole Rayman fiasco.
