      Mobile gaming is the largest market segment of gaming. There’s probably billions of people who have a phone but do not have the Internet service to download games onto a computer or console

      Most normies don’t have home Internet because the unlimited data they already buy for their phones is plenty good enough that they often don’t see the point of home Internet at all!

        Do you happen to know about that (“most normies” not having home Internet, just phone) or am I misreading and it’s half guess?

        Not tryna start an argument, to be clear lol, just wondering if you have interesting info.

          I don’t have hard statistics, but I worked customer support for a large mobile manufacturer just a few years ago, and a majority of the younger (like under 40 year old) customers that I assisted had no home Internet and their only computing device was their smartphone
