[games_access] Disabled Gamer Statistics?

[Ian Hamilton]

AFAIK there isn't anything more recent than the popcap study.

There is more recent data on number of people with disabilities (latest US data - 22% of adults, would be a bit lower if you included kids in it), but that isn't gamer-specific.

Subject: [games_access] Disabled Gamer Statistics?

Hey all,
Does anyone have updated statistics for percentage of disabled gamers in the world?
I have the 20% statistic from PopGap from 2008, and a Forrester Research study from 2003 that states, "57% of computer users are likely or very likely to benefit from the use of accessible technology."
Those numbers should have increased significantly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
-Chad
