Something like the... joystick?

Then you haven't played the right... sim games...

There's also that massive market of hidden object games. You know... the one you don't know about.

Casual gamers?
You might be surprised at some of the strategic depth and challenge of some of these.

They didn't even lock the thread. It was deleted like it had never existed.
Welcome to "community interaction" with developers. Ass kissing and cock sucking is expected of you... 'now be a dear and get daddy a beer'.

Maybe more females report they play games-- probably handphone games I think-- but there's no way all girls combined log more hours than all boys combined. I wouldn't say playing a game once in a while makes someone a "gamer." As for their economic value-- that I can believe. But I'm guessing the big subscription games, like WoW, must still be bigger moneymakers than Candy Crush, no?
Largest demographic ≠ most passionate demographic.
Per cost of development? No. Not even damn close.

Fighting games seem to create resentment in my fellow gaming lover. We love 'wrestling', and power play... but when I dominate her in literally every game I play long enough to get a vague idea what I'm doing... it's hard to find much fun in that.
It's like charging at a stampeding herd of elephants armed with a banana. Formidable? Yes... but in the end, you're overrun. Then stomped into the dirt. Then ground into ground.

My experience would suggest otherwise. And good thing too...
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
