Verifikation

Plausibel

PLAUSIBLE. PC: confirmed record year (Sensor Tower, Newzoo). Console: $45.9B likely a new high per Newzoo. Mobile: marginal — Sensor Tower shows $81.75B (+1.3%), barely above prior years. The "new high" claim for mobile is technically defensible but barely — Mobile was essentially flat 2020-2025. Ball presents all three as unambiguous records when mobile is at best a rounding-error new high.
