STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
In this study, the goal of BCC Research is to determine the current status of
the electronic gaming business and assess its growth potential from 2010 to
2011 and then over a 5-year period to 2016. Various types of gaming platforms,
electronic games, and software plus related services and accessory equipment
present a large market with growth potential.
Our objective is to present a comprehensive analysis of electronic games,
which can be defined as interactive games played on regular consoles, handheld
consoles, computers, and mobile devices such as phones and arcade machines,
and project the industry' s future direction.
REASONS FOR DOING THIS STUDY
Electronic gaming is a global popular pastime for many people. Game consoles
are similar to computer-like devices and also serve as media centers. Handheld
consoles have grown more powerful and are popular with an increasing number of
gamers. Computer gaming continues to grow as downloading is more accessible
and the mobile market, particularly smartphones, has become a burgeoning place
for games. Arcade games, once very popular, are losing their appeal to more
personalized gaming, but there is still some life left in this platform.
This report examines the current position of electronic gaming in each of
these platforms. We also examine the prospects for game development and
software, plus accessories and services for each platform. Our key objective
is to determine the future potential for this large industry.
SCOPE OF REPORT
The scope of this study encompasses game consoles that play electronic games
from television, DVD, the Internet, and outside sources; handheld consoles
that perform essentially the same function but are portable; personal
computers and tablets that play a variety of games from their hard drives or
download them; cell phone and mobile devices that can play games; and the
arcade machines that still play some video games.
BCC Research analyzes the global electronic gaming industry including
manufacturing capability and consumption in regional markets. This study also
examines industry involvement, standards, and other pertinent factors related
to the success of electronic gaming.
METHODOLOGY
Both primary and secondary research methodologies were used in preparing this
study. BCC presents an analysis of units shipped for 2010 and their value. Our
estimated value is what manufacturers have paid in underappreciated U.S.
dollars. Based on our surveys, we analyze the potential growth for each major
product and then forecast shipments for 2011 and 2016. We also analyze pricing
trends and establish shipment values for 2010 and project those for 2011 and
2016.

全球的電子遊戲市場於2016年將達1,117億美元規模
2011年11月01日
Global Information Inc.開始銷售由 BCC Research所發行的調查報告「Electronic Games and Gaming: Global Markets (全球電玩遊戲市場)」。
全球的電子遊戲市場預期將在2011年達到699億美元，之後的市場被預測在2011-2016年，將以CAGR（年複合成長率）9.8%更進一步擴大，並於2016年擴大至將近1,118億美元。
全球的電子遊戲市場可分為遊戲與軟體、遊戲機硬體、以及配件與服務等3個領域。
遊戲以及軟體的領域，預期2011年的市場規模為432億美元，之後將以CAGR 10.5%成長，並於2016年達到712億美元。
遊戲機硬體的領域，預期2011年將接近241億美元的規模，之後將以CAGR 8.0%成長，並於2016年達到約354億美元的市場規模。
配件以及服務部門，預期2011年的規模達26億美元，之後將以CAGR 14.5%成長，並於2016年達到接近52億美元。
電子遊戲被認為是暫時性的流行，但是，現在卻吸引住全球所有年齡層的所有人。
過去，遊戲在室內、商場以及慶典等特別情況時為不可或缺的，不過多數為機械式，需要電力的東西也屬少數程度。
任何人都沒想到遊戲做為娛樂可以擁有現在的人氣。
而現在，遊戲電子化，也裝載於PC和TV組、網路以及行動電話上。並且，有新媒體被開發出來的話，電子遊戲也必定會被考量做為主要的應用。
