Games Corp Sim

Games Corp Sim would be a simulation of a gaming corporation.

Gameplay
The game would be played like this: You would start by you choosing three game developers and two hardware guys out of ten possible candidates. You would then begin developing consoles, games for them, marketing strategies, and other game develop-y things.

At the end of a console generation, a chart comes up and a winner is declared. If your profits are too far behind your profits, then you fall out of the console market and become a third-party developer.
