Report shows adults biggest consumers of mobile games
Middle aged gamers for teh win (or something)! The NPD Group is reporting that in an average month, 29 million cell owners play games on their mobile devices and more than 7 million download games -- though there isn't any mention of where they are downloading from. NPD further break this down with 29 percent downloaded by people aged 24 - 34, 27 by the 18 - 24 set, and 15 percent by the youngest group aged 13 - 17. No shocker here -- the oldest group typically has the means, a credit card to shop with, and depending on the career choice, time.[Via mocoNews]

I get all my games for free, download them to the computer and transfer them via Bluetooth or the web. Does that mean I'm not counted?

...or no shocker because thats the generation who grew up with games (or maybe i should say the type of games that are normally on phones... ie pacman, space invaders, pole position-type, etc). oh, and what kid - teen sits and plays card games? those are also big mobile games...
