SAN DIEGO, Oct. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a series of new reports from
DFC Intelligence the worldwide market for portable and mobile games is
expected to grow to $11.7 billion by 2014. The primary driver of this growth
is expected to be the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch systems. By 2014, sales for
games on the iPhone/iPod Touch are expected to account for about 24% of total
portable game software sales.
"The dedicated portable game systems from companies like Nintendo and Sony are
still expected to lead the market, but it appears growth for these devices has
peaked. The platforms from Apple are expected to be responsible for the bulk
of market growth over the next few years," says DFC analyst David Cole.
