What are the potential challenges Netflix might face while venturing into new growth areas like video games?

Netflix might face several challenges while venturing into new growth areas like video games. Firstly, it's a new domain for Netflix, and they might lack the necessary expertise and understanding of the gaming industry. Secondly, the gaming industry is already highly competitive with established players like Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo. Thirdly, developing or acquiring high-quality games is costly and time-consuming. Lastly, the success of this venture heavily relies on the acceptance and adoption by their existing user base.

Question was asked on:
