Fuck apple
>revenue
You know damn well this is bait given the actual results of more money almost always equaling a shittier game.
>popularizes limited plays and in-app monetization
>pc gaming has doubled in the last 15 years while console gaming has stagnated
Feels good man
>a big chunk of the revenue is just straight out console ports
Feels bad man.
Also the revenue is mostly from "f2p" monetization scam schemes like every mmorpg
more ethical than monthly subscription
when you get older you'll realize that if you like a game you would rather it have a subscription than be free.
Incorrect. I will never pay for a subscription that isn't a life necessity or internet.
boy it sure is good to see PC gaming doing so well, the future looks great PC bros!
>t. spends $1000 on lootboxes to own the consolelibs
>people claim GAMING IS BIGGER THAN EVER
>gaming is the same size
>more mums have access to begarden gnomeeled clones though
lol
>handheld and arcade gaming die out
>gaming becomes sovlless
What a coincidence, not
What would cause mobile gaming to die?
gambling laws
mobile market is already contracting, chink
how do i invest in video games to make passive income?
This doesn't make any sense. During the PS2 generation the highest seller was San Andreas at like 15 million. During the next generation there were multiple AAA franchises selling more than that every single year. On top of that there was the massive Wii audience, why is the revenue stream barely changed?
perhaps its only taking into account marginal profits, where over the years the increasing cost of games outweighs gained profits?

I WANT TO GO BACK
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeee
>chart puts emphesis on cloud gaming
I wonder if the person who made this knew how badly it'd flop
Hardly the same market, most mobile phone games are either gachas or shit like raid shadow legends, most of the revenue comes from whales and mommies stolen credit card.
>the future
it's already here. mainstream games are pretty much jobs now.
>arcade, at its peak, was bigger than consoles and almost as big as PC gaming is currently
No way, I don't believe it
Not only that, the second gen with the Atari 2600 was apparently as big as 2/3 of the covid boosted console market. Makes absolutely zero sense.
gosh i hate normalgays so much
I think what people fail to consider that this massive revenue from the mobile market is literally limited to a handful of the most popular games. I don't know the actual numbers but if I had to guess it's probably within top 30 or so of them.
An average mobile game probably brings little no revenue. That's why there are app developers that sometimes will make a dozen or so of them, release them all and see what actually sticks.
Grim
>gaming is ruined forever because of retarded whales, gachafags, and waifufags
Yes I know I said the same thing 3 times.
Mobile gaming is the past, VR is obviously the future but you are too dumb to realize it. 20 years from now you will make a "VR is the future" just when brain chips are about to replace it
>Arcades generating more revenue than consoles in current year
Doubt
>mobile poster is retarded
no doubt
Mobile games are the new arcade because these shitty micro transactions. It is spreading like cancer.
How much of a difference would there be if Nintendo Switch was in the handheld section not the console section?
A lot of people usually put these two markets into a single thing.
Yeah but all of the ~~*revenue*~~ generated from mobile games goes into not video games.
guaranteed everyone on mobile is under 18 years old.
mobile includes shit like literal gambling, and something like 75-90% of profit on the platform is objectively exploitative. it's not even remotely a fair comparison
>one time candy crush players included
number cooked as fuck you can regurgigate on feces all you want i will make up my own charts
>VR
JUST
Handheld is no more.
>Switch counts as a console
well
>the future
you're 10 years too late with that "prediction"
