Sony is working on a movie about the Nintendo vs. SEGA console war
The idea already exists in book form , with Console Wars coming out in May, written by Blake Harris. Console Wars focuses on SEGA’s challenge to Nintendo in the early 90s with the SEGA Mega Drive. A movie based on the book is already being worked on, with Sony Pictures and Scott Rudin (of Moneyball, The Social Network fame) behind it.
Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg will be directing, with the comedy duo taking up the screenplay duties, too. Console Wars’ author will serve as an Executive Producer, but is also co-directing a documentary on the same subject, with Rudin, Rogen and Goldberg all sitting on as producers.
