Mobile Gaming Stats: 44 Percent of People Play Mobile Games

We had spotted multiple gaming stats in the past - we spotted this today:

"More than 4 in 10 (44 percent) of adults surveyed had played at least one mobile game in the past month – an increase of 29 percent compared to just a year ago.

Nearly one in ten respondents (9 percent) became a new mobile gamer in the past year by playing one or more games on a recently acquired tablet.

Phones and computers are the most common game devices (33 percent and 32 percent respectively), with dedicated consoles trailing behind at 18 percent."

How do we digest these numbers? Simple: If you do not know what all those people are doing with their mobile phones - the answer is simple, they are playing mobile games. We all, apparently, never grew up.
