Facts from: http://www.trenditionist.com/2012/04/16/ten-facts-about-the-videogame-industry/ - The estimated time spent playing videogames in the United States in 2011, according to a survey by Veronis Suhler Stevenson, was 131 hours per person in total. The number is expected to be 142 by 2012, which is almost double the amount from 2002. - Among which age group are videogames most popular? In 2011, 18 to 49-year-olds made up the largest age group at 53%. But people aged 50 and older followed at 29%. The smallest group was under 18 years old, at 18%... ^^ ![]() ![]() |
