Where Are All The Gamers At?
Hello my fair Steemians, it is my absolute pleasure to bring you your daily gaming news, Monday to Friday, in Vlog format. Because this is Steemit I will also be doing an exclusive Steemit blog post every Sunday that has something to do with gaming, be it a console, a specific video game, a period in general of gaming, anything else gaming related. I’ll also be posting in depth reviews of the multiple games I’ve been playing through.
The Gaming Industry Is Massive, Why Not Bring Some Of That To Steemit?
The gaming and entertainment sectors of the world today take up a solid chunk of revenue over the years. Today the global Video game market alone is valued at over 93 billion dollars, 16.5 billion of that was in software sales which is an excellent indicator that the video game industry is healthy and progressing. Over 63% of houses in the United States have at least one constant gamer (plays at least hours a week) and over 65% of households own some type of modern gaming console. Even the average age has increased as the gaming generation grow older and older, looks like it's kicked all the way up to 35 in recent years. 59% are male and 41% are female gamers, so it truly is a topic that caters to both genders. Nicely done girls!
International video game revenue is estimated to be $81.5B in 2014.[50] This is more than double the revenue of the international film industry in 2013.[51] In 2015 it was estimated at US$91.5 billion.
The largest nations by estimated video game revenues in 2016 are China ($24.4B), the United States ($23.5B) and Japan ($12.4B).[53] The largest regions in 2015 were Asia-Pacific ($43.1B), North America ($23.8B), and Western Europe ($15.6B).[52]
