If they don't have the tablet at launch and its not standard across all games. For the next 6 years they would be behind the 8 ball of the way media is consumed. It's a matter of consvience, gamers above a certain age with families make this a must. That's a market that's ever growing as gamers age, and they have huge disposable incomes, compared to the under 20 market.
In a world now attached to tablets to be stuck in the living room is going to be ancient very, very soon.
