Plausibel

PLAUSIBLE but with same caveats as c114. The "~60% of consumer spend" figure for the Major Market 8 is plausible given these are the US, Japan, UK, Germany, France, South Korea, Canada, and Italy. But the blanket "losing" claim is overstated — 3 of 8 markets (France, Germany, Japan) show stable or growing gaming participation.
