Gaming console manufacturers know they face an uphill battle as the mobile gaming market continues to steal consumers’ attention. But a series of reports from Parks Associates shows just how much trouble the Big Three (Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo) face both in the U.S. and the western part of Europe.
In their new European research report, Parks found a steady decline in gaming console adoption in France, Spain, and the U.K., while it remained flat in Germany. The research firm pointed to the continued adoption of mobile gaming as well as the availability of gaming on streaming media devices as key drivers of the decline.
