Video Gamers - Predictable to Fickle, Serious To Silly, Can EA Make The Shift?

February 12, 2009

Electronic Arts Reports Loss, Accelerates Cost Cuts | www.bloomberg.com

Worldwide sales of video game software grew 20% in 2008, outselling DVD and Blu-Ray for the first time. The good news is video games have clearly become much more popular with a much bigger audience.  Traditionally associated most with young males, now more young girls, men and women over 40 and females of all ages are playing than ever before - 97% of all teens now play video games regularly. The down side of this exploding popularity is a more fickle and less predictable audience, with very different preferences and behaviors than the “traditional” gamers.  Clearly this escaped Electronic Arts (NASDQ:ERTS) last year, with just one game in the top 10 titles for the year.
