Is Activision online games Blizzard in a rough patch or a longer decline?

It’s financial earnings season, and as expected, a lot of the news coming out of the industry isn’t particularly good.
Last week saw Microsoft and Sony post sales declines from their gaming businesses, even as the platform-holders’ other businesses carried both to growth, while Capcom revenues were almost halved on a tough comparison to last year’s first fiscal quarter when it launched Resident Evil Village.
This week saw a few more companies offer a mix of results, including Nintendo joining its platform holder peers with fairly “meh” results.
