SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Activision Inc (ATVI.O) Chief Executive Bobby Kotick said on Thursday he sees no signs that growth in the video game industry is slowing.

"The video-game market fundamentals have never been stronger. There's no evidence that this growth will slow," Kotick told a conference call.

"A lot of this growth is coming from consumers who are experiencing video games for the first time," Kotick said.
