Gaikai aims to open digital doors to highstreet retail

And Andrew Gault, co-founder of Gaikai, says the cloud-gaming firm is in deep discussions with big names from both sides of the divide.

“We’re speaking to quite a number of retailers, and none of them despise the idea we have,” Gault told MCV this week.
