Japan has always been notoriously avoidant of PC games. Most Japanese devs only worked on consoles and mobile games kicked off way earlier over there so the casual PC market never caught on. That much momentum is probably hard to change
Yeah, without those early days of casual PC gaming I can see how that affected the market over there. I mean, if it wasn’t for Kongregate, Newgrounds, and Miniclip idk how many Americans would be on PC gaming.
If the size of the apartments they live in is as small as media portrays them to be, they cannot fit a pc reasonably well inside (of course not everyone has mini living space)
Having no idea what the ventilation is in other areas, I don’t know how it compares.
Also all those markets probably overlap a fair bit.
I used to think that the share was roughly ½ console and ½ PC, but not only does it probably vary wildly from place to place, I have nothing to base that feeling on anyway. It’s just that I never played on a console (until the deck, which only semi-counts) and never met anybody who did until quite late (which admittedly doesn’t really mean anything). Also I never really thought of phones as a gaming medium even though they clearly are.
And finally, now that a lot of titles are released on multiple platforms, does it matter all that much?
