Recently we have been studying the latest explosion in the wireless world, wireless gaming. With the upcoming release of the PSP in Australia, I expect that it will be a similar market disaster with nearly 90% of retail stock still sitting on the shelf in the US.
Now you have to ask yourself, why is there such a small market for wireless gaming? Well I believe the answer is obvious, most people want to play games in the comfort of their own homes with their gigantic integrated home theatre system and not on a palm sized screen with tinny speakers. That fact is that people who play wireless games are seen by many as anti-social, as you normally would play wireless games in public, I mean, well there wireless! Come on?
My point is that usually anti-social people tend not to go wireless, as this might give them a tendency of actually going into public, and that would frighten them. I believe the real market for wireless gaming is not rooted in hardcore gaming fans, but truly in the heart of yuppies and kids with too much money.
