"Among the largest of seven gaming "groups" identified in the NPD reports is "secondary gamers," a 33.6 million-strong club (or about 21 percent of the overall U.S. gaming population) of "mostly female gamers who play less than four hours a week and don't own a console," according to GameSpot. Next up: console gamers, who account for about 19 percent of the pie (and growing rapidly, GameSpot reports). After that, you've got your "heavy portable gamers," followed by "extreme gamers" who lock and load nearly 40 hours a week." - xero from Bookmarklet
