In this episode of Buona la Prima, Pietro and Sergio debunk the alarmism with a bit of healthy realism:
There's been a lot of talk in recent days about one statistic: American Gen Z has reduced its spending on video games by 25%. But if we look closely... that data only concerns January-April, the historically slowest period of the year for gaming.

📉 The decline affects all youth consumption, not just video games
⏳ And the data? They're taken from the deadest quarter of the year, with April notoriously the black hole for video game sales.
