Actors Seth Rogen and screenwriter Evan Goldberg will be producing Console Wars, which will be a limited series, for the small screen. Legendary Television has closed a deal to develop the Blake J. Harris novel "Console Wars: Sega, Nintendo and the Battle that Defined a Generation" as a limited drama series, reports variety.com.

The books tells the behind-the-scenes story of how Sega took on the juggernaut Nintendo and revolutionised the video game industry. Jordan Vogt-Roberts will direct with Mike Rosolio to write the pilot. It was announced in 2014 that Rogen and Goldberg had signed on to write and direct a "Console Wars" movie. Rogen later commented that a documentary version would be released first before he and Goldberg began working on the film.
