Console Wars has some interesting reporting in it, but it's otherwise a terrible book. Absolutely filled with cliches, invented dialogue and business speak. It's also very clear that this book emerged from getting access to Sega of America chief Tom Kalinske and cannot solve the problem of getting anything meaningful out of Nintendo.

And perhaps unintentionally the Nintendo folks come out looking cool, authentic and passionate about making great games while the Sega folks seem like a bunch of cargo cult marketers who happen to be trying to sell games.
