Novos números do consumo na industria de jogos.
Basicamente, é preciso todas as consolas caseiras, para morder os calcanhares do mercado de PC.
E não chega o mercado todo de PC+consolas caseiras+consolas portáteis, para bater os jogos em smartphones e tablets.
Cada vez mais pessoas compram em digital, como já se esperava, mas a pandemia acelerou o processo.
E o consumo em jogos disparou 40% com a pandemia.

Neste momento no mobile também já tem coisas como COD, Fortnite, PUBG, Pokemon, etc.

No ano passado lembrei-me de vender o meu dual shock, pois não lhe estava a dar uso. A pensar que ia vender a alguém com PC ou PS4.
Acabei por vender a uma rapariga que jogava COD no smartphone. E queria ligar o dual shock por bluetooth. Eu nem sabia que dava para fazer isso, mas ela testou á minha frente e funcionou.

Tencent's value plunges by $60 billion after China calls online games 'electronic drugs'

In an article on Tuesday, the state-run Economic Information Daily said many teenagers were now addicted to online games, and they were having a negative effect on the youngsters. It also called for more restrictions. The outlet is affiliated with China's biggest state-run news agency, Xinhua.
Tencent's hugely popular Honor of Kings was cited in the article. As of November 2020, it has over 100 million daily active players. The outlet writes that many users spend eight hours or more playing the game every day.

"No industry, no sport, can be allowed to develop in a way that will destroy a generation," it stated, comparing online games to "spiritual opium worth hundreds of billions."
Tencent's shares fell more than 10% in morning trade, wiping almost $60 billion from its market cap, writes Reuters. NetEase shares were down 15.7%, and game developer XD Inc and mobile gaming firm GMGE Technology Group Ltd also saw their shares plummet. China's video games market was worth $43.1 billion in 2020
Tencent in a social media post said it was introducing measures to cap the number of hours minors spend on Honor of Kings after "relevant authorities" requested greater protections for younger players and for companies to carry out their "societal responsibility." Additionally, those under 12 will be prohibited from in-game spending, and there will be more efforts to prevent minors from using adult accounts. The company said it plans to roll out the restrictions to all of its games eventually.
