How to use the dataset

This dataset can be used to uncover hidden trends in Global Video Games Sales. To make the most of this data, it is important to understand the different columns and their respective values.

The 'Rank' column identifies each game's ranking according to its global sales (highest to lowest). This can help you identify which games are most popular globally. The 'Game Title' column contains the name of each video game, which allows you to easily discern one entry from another. The 'Platform' column lists the type of platform on which each game was released, e.g., PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, so that you can make comparisons between platforms as well as specific games for each platform. The 'Year' column provides an additional way of making year-on-year comparisons and tracking changes over time in global video game sales.
In addition, this dataset also contains metadata such as genre ('Genre'), publisher ('Publisher'), and review score ('Review') that add context when considering a particular title's performance in terms of global sales rankings. For example, it might be more compelling to compare two similar genres than two disparate ones when analyzing how successful a select set of titles have been at generating revenue in comparison with others released globally within that timeline. Lastly but no less important are the three variables dedicated exclusively for geographic breakdowns: North America ('North America'), Europe (Europe), Japan (Japan), Rest of World (Rest of World), and Global (Global). This allows us to see how certain regions contribute individually or collectively towards a given title's overall sales figures; by comparing these metrics regionally or collectively an interesting picture arises -- from which inferences about consumer preferences and supplier priorities emerge!

Overall this powerful dataset allows researchers and marketers alike a deep dive into market performance for those persistent questions about demand patterns across demographics around the world!
