Gaming
is a huge and growing global market forecast to be worth
$2.14 trillion by 2020.1 One popular accessory is the
controller grip, a convex or concave add-on to the gaming
controller’s buttons that enhances accuracy, dexterity
and comfort over long hours of play.
A developer of gaming accessories saw an untapped
market opportunity for controller grips featuring a
glow-in-the-dark effect that would appeal to style-
conscious customers.
According to the company,
the precise thumb control and long-term comfort has
made these new accessories “wildly popular.”
