Deadline:

Blake J. Harris’ novel Console Wars; Sega, Nintendo and the Battle that Defined a Generation is in the works for the small screen. Legendary TV and Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s Point Grey Pictures are teaming to develop the novel into a limited drama series.

Console Wars is a really great read, perfectly encapsulating the video game war which enraptured the playgrounds of my generation. It should make for a great television series.

(I was a Sega fan, myself. Ironic, given how much of a Nintendo fan I’ve grown into being.)

I am hoping that this is sort of a kinder, gentler, funnier Halt and Catch Fire.
