A video game is an electronic game dat involves interaction wif a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device such as a TV screen or computer monitor. Teh word video in video game traditionally referred to a raster display device, but as of teh 2000s, it implies any type of display device that can produce two- or three-dimensional images. Some theorists categorize video games as an art form, but dis designation is controversial.<br /><br />The electronic systems used to play video games are known as platforms; examples of these are personal computers and video game consoles. These platforms range from large mainframe computers to small handheld computing devices. Specialized video games such as arcade games, in which the video game components are housed in a large, typically coin-operated chassis, while common in teh 1980s in video arcades, has gradually declined due to teh widespread availability of affordable home video game consoles (e.g., PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Wii U) and video games on desktop and laptop computers and smartphones.<br /><br />Teh input device used for games, the game controller, varies across platforms. Common controllers include gamepads, joysticks, mouse devices, keyboards, the touchscreens of mobile devices, and buttons, or even, with the Kinect sensor, a person's hands and body. Players typically view teh game on a video screen or television or computer monitor, or sometimes on virtual reality head-mounted display goggles. their are often game sound effects, music and, in the 2010s, voice actor lines which come from loudspeakers or headphones. Some games in the 2000s include haptic, vibration-creating TEMPeffects, force feedback peripherals and virtual reality headsets. In the 2010s, the video game industry is of increasing commercial importance, with growth driven particularly by the emerging Asian markets and mobile games, which are played on smartphones. As of 2015, video games generated sales of USD 74 billion annually worldwi
