Global gaming hardware Market expands, PC remains dominant

Recently, in the United States held in the 2015GDC (Game Developers Conference), market research organization Jon Peddie study published a global game hardware market data report. The new report says the global gaming hardware market has expanded to $67 billion trillion. The PC dominates, and the smartphone follows. Although the host hardware market has improved, but still ranked third.

At present, the global game hardware market, PC accounted for 33% of the share of the smartphone's share of 23%. By virtue of the Times mainframe and Ouya, Fire TV, Nvdia Sheild, such as Android micro-mainframe, the market share of the mainframe to 16%, higher than the 11% of the tablet computer. But the palm machine occupies the market share only has the pitiful 3%.

The report cites Open Game Alliance data, pointing out that the global gaming software market in 2014 has reached $26 billion trillion, and if combined with sales figures in the gaming hardware market, the entire gaming market will be about $100 billion trillion.

It is worth mentioning that Jon Peddie in the report objected to the idea that smartphones outperform mainframes. "Moore's law applies to all platforms," says Jon Peddie, the hardware-processing level of the mainframe as the smartphone hardware level advances. And the reason that "mobile phone can provide the quality of the host level" is said, "because these phones are referred to by the older generation of the game host." ”

The problem, though, is that even older hosts can restore their images on their phones as a great breakthrough. Fever, endurance and operation remain a hindrance to smartphone performance breakthroughs.
