Logitech to axe its console accessories

Last week we reported Logitech would cut some of its non-core activities, including a sale of its Harmony and video security units, and now FUD Zilla adds that Logitech will be leaving the console accessory business as well. The decision has no impact on Logitech's PC peripheral business.
While the company is exiting the gaming console business, it has decided that it will continue unchanged in the PC gaming business. This is not really that big of a surprise, as the company has always done very well in the PC gaming business and a good majority of the products in that line carry high price tags and provide the company with better and more competitive margins. Those that have recently purchased any gaming console product from Logitech should not worry, as they will honor warranties on these products and continue to take care of these customers until the warranties expire.
