During a “stat packed” session at the Edinburgh Interactive Festival covered by MCV, investment banker Paul Heydon of independent banking firm Avista Parners has claimed that when you add up the value of all publicly traded games companies, the global games market is worth $105 billion.

It’s worth noting, however, that these figures don’t include independent developers and private publishers. Despite that, though, the numbers are still interesting, with Nintendo claiming $35 billion of the market for the largest share — the PC and console market without Nintendo only managing $33 billion in total.
