^This, luckily the industry as a whole as come to the point where it is far more "monopolized" than it was in the 80's. That is, rather than a dozen or so console development companies all marketing their products on the same level, along with even more individual game developers in a time when genres and tastes were not yet well defined, we now have a whopping 3 major console developers, each with their own 1st & 3rd party development teams with much more experience in the industry.
tl;dr, it would take some serious upper management issues for any of the major developers to flat out go out of business (ala Sega with their console development sector).
