    Here's some more recent sales data culled from NPD December 2010 Report:

    2009 2010
    Video Games Software (Console+Portable – New Physical): $9.92B $9.36B
    Total Software Sales – (Console+Portable+PC New Phys)): $10.60B $10.06B

    Math =>
    2009 PC Software Sales = $0.68B
    2009 PC Software Sales = $0.70B

    The PC game market is roughly a 7% share of the total video game market....

    WoW is old news. If I were a company today...deciding where to invest my resources...well let's just say I understand why the KB/M UI is an obvious secondary concern for SE. (See also complaints regarding Dungeon Seige III's recent launch and shoddy KB/M configuration support). It used to be that the PC was the primary platform, and then it got ported to the console. But I'm starting to get the reverse feeling from many games nowadays.
