Today's episode is the first in a multi-part series on the video game console market. Our guest is Sia Kamalie, the founder and fund manager at Skycatcher. Skycatcher describes itself as focused on capturing asymmetry at the internet frontier, and Sia has very strong conviction that the video game console market is entering a major paradigm shift with an app store model set to hit its inflection point. We start with an overview of the video game console market, laying out its size and current state. In episodes two and three, we explore this theme in even more depth when we cover the names most exposed to it: Sony and Nintendo.  On these episodes, we always recommend doing your own research. We invited Sia on to lay out his thesis, so this one is particularly geared towards that investment opportunity. Please enjoy this Breakdown of the video console market.   For the full show notes, transcript, and links to the best content to learn more, check out the episode page here. ----- This episode is sponsored by Finley - modern debt capital management software for borrowers and lenders.

The conversation explores the similarities between the casino gaming industry and the video gaming industry, focusing on player tracking, promotions, regulation, algorithms, and the addictive nature of in-game purchases. Kevin Berry shares his experience in the casino gaming industry and discusses the strategies used to reward top players and increase revenue. The discussion also delves into the impact of social media algorithms on content consumption and the importance of managing time spent on social media. The conversation concludes with advice on navigating the digital landscape and the guest's contact information for further inquiries.   Takeaways   Player tracking and promotions are common strategies used in both gaming industries and social media platforms to increase engagement and revenue. Regulation plays a role in determining the odds and hold of casino games, while algorithms determine the content shown on social media platforms. In-game purchases and microtransactions can be addictive and have the potential to impact daily life and financial well-being. It is important to monitor and educate children on social media usage to ensure a healthy relationship with technology.
