The Paragon Report examines investing opportunities in the Multimedia & Graphics Software Industry and provides equity research on Glu Mobile Inc.

Reports from DFC Intelligence, a video game and entertainment industry research firm, predict that by 2017 the worldwide video game market will expand to $82 billion from the $67 billion in 2012. "New console systems from Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony are expected to help the console segment regain some momentum in the 2014 to 2015 timeframe," said DFC Intelligence analyst David Cole. "However, the steadiest area of growth is on the PC and mobile side."
According to the DFC's "Online Game Market Forecasts" online game revenues are estimated to nearly double in 2017 to $35 billion from the $19 billion in 2011. "By 2017 we forecast 39% of console game revenue will be via online distribution and online revenue sources," said Cole.
