Beginning of the end for game consoles

• Game streaming is expected to grow to a $38 billion market by 2035, potentially killing off dedicated video-game consoles as a mass-market product.
• The proliferation of artificial intelligence and data centers for cloud computing will accelerate the global reach of game streaming and improve unit economics, according to research from Bloomberg Intelligence.
• Microsoft is expected to maintain a roughly 40% share with its Xbox Cloud Gaming, a service that notched up an estimated 220 million hours of streamed gameplay in the September quarter.
