search_sourceschangeddescription, input schemaSearch 978 curated sources on the video games industry: press outlets, trade associations, datasets, analysts, podcasts, books, YouTube channels and communities across 26 markets.

This answers "where would I look for this?" — it is a directory of sources, not a source of facts, and nothing in it is ranked or scored.

get_landscapechangeddescriptionThe platform and genre maps. 36 platforms — storefronts, consoles, livestreaming and UGC — with who owns each and where its data lives. 30 genres with definitions, subgenres, example games, and the terms actually used in Chinese, Korean and Japanese. Read the genre map before comparing two datasets: the industry has no shared taxonomy and this records where the vendors disagree.

get_marketchangeddescription, input schemaHow to research one of 11 games markets, and the profile behind it. It opens with before_you_start, the research notes for that market: which national annuals are paid and what is free, which venues are closed or could not be verified, which figures overlap or are published on a basis that will not compare, what a weekly chart does and does not count. Then known_gaps, what the directory does not hold for that market and where to go instead. Then a sourced narrative built from claims that each carry the link they came from, a market-size figure with the basis it was published on, a player-population figure with the definition of who was counted, and where that market's data lives. Only these eleven have profiles — for any other market code, search_sources with a market filter is what exists.
