Perhaps the most interesting tables
Translation from what I know is digital distribution marketshare for games on consoles in 2021. Numbers have been rounded to the nearest 5% incremental.
Importantly gives us data on the digital ratio for Nintendo and Playstation.
I believe its revenue since the hardware marketshare, Table 7, has Nintendo 70%, Playstation 30% which only works out by revenue. By units Nintendo had 81% of the market in 2021.
Also impossible to get 50/50 PS:N if Nintendo 1st party is included. That is if this is about game sales and so does not include F2P/MTX etc
Estimating digital ratios:
- Nintendo 3rd party physical sales 2021 CY = ~11M
- Playstation physical sales 2021 CY = ~4.5M
- Assuming similar price distribution
- So you can work it out:
- PS 20% digital = 1.125M digital games
- PS ~= Nintendo -> 1.125/(11+1.125) = 10% digital ratio for Nintendo 3rd party
PS digital | Nintendo digital (3rd party) |
20% | 9% |
30% | 15% |
40% | 21% |
50% | 29% |
There's more tables there, PC distirbution, game publishing, Cloud, but its harder for me to parse since there are so many companies unlabelled.
