As referenced many time on this blog, Disney, especially under CEO Bob Iger, is very into spreading a franchise over as many platforms as possible for optimum return on little new content and creativity.
Lately, noticeable in the anticipated Epic Mickey game, Iger's noticing the rise in "casual gaming." This leads to speculation on if Disney will attempt to acquire some game companies. Groups like Electronic Arts are Take-Two Interactive are vulnerable for takeover after huge falls in shares.
Iger only somewhat plays into this speculation saying, "we need to make sure we are structured... to take advantage of all elements of the game business."
Yea, Iger, work those franchises.
