Black video gamers


Recommended Posts

ZeniMax Media Inc. started in 1999 was the holding company for Bethesda Game Studios (BGS) started in 2001.  In 2021, they were acquired by Microsoft for $7.5 billion. 

 

I don't know how possible or feasible it will be to get white-owned game developers to create black characters.

 

It reads to me like there is an opportunity for more black -owned video game development companies.  Of course, there is the challenge of getting into the XBOX and/or Sony orbit. 

 

That leads me to...maybe black folks need to develop a video game system too.  Microsoft and Sony cannot be the only folks smart enough to do it.  Before them, there was Coleco, Atari, Sega and Nintendo.  

 

The bottom line is that I'm not surprised this situation exists.  I'm just wondering how much exclusion or marginalization it will take in order to get black folks to create opportunities instead of waiting around for them.  😎
