🕹️ In-Game Items: The largest segment at $80 Billion, driven by primary sales of skins, achievements, and other digital assets in games like Fortnite and League of Legends.
🎮 Consoles: Worth $37 Billion, with sales spiking during new console launches and secondary market interest doubling roughly a decade later.
👾 Physical Cartridges: A $12 Billion market, though declining as digital consumption dominates (now 80-90% of new sales).
🃏 Trading Cards: A $13 Billion category fueled by Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering, with new entrants like Disney and Riot Games gaining momentum.
