Is it worth making games for Custom Consoles?

By the third Office I usually end up with a group capable of only about 2-3 of the genres (Due to overall High Tech skill or vise versa). However when I release a game on a console my company makes, it never reviews above average, and almost always reviews poorly.

Why? Because say I make nothing but Action Games. Somehow Action is a Terrible genre for the console that I created. It makes no sense.
From my understanding, it's supposed to be based off the amount of released games in the different genres. But unless I'm an idiot, it just doesn't work.

In many saves, even when prior to the third office I could end up specializing in like 1-2 genres, and neither of them ever end up being whats good on our platform.
So one of three things is going on here.
1. It's a broken Feature.
2. It's actually random and the info I read is wrong.
3. I'm an idiot.

Ehh i found it to be random. But making those always seemed to be a waste of money since you can win just making games for the PC, Xbox and Playstation.

Yes you can beat the game without making any, but I have found that the investment does cause a big profit if done at the right time. You could get tons of money since your console often becomes the top selling one, but since theres so pattern with what your console is good with, by the time you releases games and do release reports, the next generation is out.
