Sony Pictures making "Console Wars" movie to be directed by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg

[satam55]

Atlantic Books' publisher, Toby Mundy has acquired CONSOLE WARS by Blake Harris, a riveting behind-the-scenes business thriller that chronicles how Sega, a small, scrappy gaming company led by an unlikely visionary, took on the juggernaut Nintendo and revolutionized the video game industry. Atlantic will publish CONSOLE WARS: Sega, Nintendo and the Battle that Defined a Generation in August 2014.

Sony Pictures and Scott Rudin (Moneyball, The Social Network) are developing Console Wars as a feature film to be directed by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg (Knocked Up, Superbad). Rogen and Goldberg are also writing the screenplay. Harris is serving as Executive Producer, and is also co-directing a documentary on the same subject, with Rudin, Rogen and Goldberg producing as well.

Could be good if they go the social network route and have the gaming industry just be the backdrop. I can't see it appealing to many people otherwise?

This movie is going to make every 90's baby give the collective

if the movie is taking place during the genesis/snes era, it's before 90's babies time. it's for us 80's babies
