New Chinese console regulations coming soon — won't permit 'things that are hostile to China'

China is about to crack a window — not to let out the smog but to let in game consoles.

The Chinese Ministry of Culture revealed that it’s currently working to write up new rules on gaming-dedicated systems for the market of 1.3 billion people that the multibillion-dollar console industry has yet to tap. This comes after the committee dropped its previous ban on gaming consoles, which had prevented companies like Nintendo, Sony, or Microsoft from selling their gaming devices in China since 2000.
