Activision CEO Regrets Not Bringing Call of Duty to Switch

Bobby Kotick testified during the hearing.

Activision CEO Bobby Kotick has testified during the FTC vs. Microsoft hearing, confessing that he regrets not bringing Call of Duty to Nintendo Switch.

"I made a bad judgment," he said (via VGC). "When I had seen the prototype of the Switch, it was different then when I saw the prototype of the Wii [and] I thought it was the most extraordinary video game system ever created."

Apparently, he didn't believe in the Nintendo console's success as the company was trying to "accomplish a lot" with a console "that also had a portable capability."

Clearly, he was mistaken as Switch has sold over 125 million units in these six years. "It’s probably the second most successful video game system of all time, so it was a bad decision on my part," Kotick added.

In February, Nintendo and Microsoft signed a 10-year agreement to launch the game on Switch.
