"US mobile gamers surpassed online casual gamers in 2012 and will remain the largest audience segment through at least 2014."
By 2014, 144 million Americans will be playing mobile games up from the near 126 million currently sampling their delights. Skip forward another two years and that figure will have risen further, accounting for 80 percent of smartphone owners.
