Gaming is a larger market than Hollywood. Maybe it becomes a distraction for Nvidia, but someone will step in. That might actually be a good thing and why Nvidia wont do that: it creates an under served market in which newcomers can cut their teeth.

Much of the gaming market is phone games however, not traditional consoles or PCs.

Edit: about half in fact! The rest is shared between the other traditional gaming types.

  • Most of the publishers make money on their pc and console games, mobile users barely pay for games although they do pay for microtransactions stuff

  • This feels so insane to me, because I don't think I know anyone who plays phone games

    • This probably includes little silly games like Candy Crush, and (maybe) others that seem more like "paper" games like Sudoku, Wordle, Connections, etc. Many play those, especially the second bucket.

I think we would see an increased push towards cloud gaming. That's probably what Nvidia would want.
