“Gaming
Peripherals Emerge As More Than a Sideline”
Investor’s Business Daily, June 1, 2004:
According to the NPD Group, the accessories
market is roughly 12% - 13% of the video game market...
Controllers will always be one of the top
three categories because
consoles come with
only one included, and most games are
multiplayer.
(Note: This research was
done prior to the explosion in
multi-player games such as Halo and Gears of War.)

Future Markets:
Sterile Medical Interface to reduce germ
transmission in hospitals and other medical facilities estimated at a
cost of $5 billion annually by the Center for Disease Control.
Assistive Technology to help reduce the
costs associated with the number one cause for absenteeism due to
injury, Carpal Tunnel, with annual costs to US companies of over $3
billion.
