What non-gaming revenue do both EA and Valve have?
If their gaming revenue is 6.5 their total revenue is about 6.5 no?

Being a marketplace for other people’s games would probably be classified as a different type of income, specially if steam sells software that’s not games (which it does).

I’ll grant that a looot of valve’s revenue is from marketplace & steam store, and sure they sell other products but it’s a drop in the bucket vs gaming. It’s effectively a service for gamers. It’s probably not considered gaming revenue for accounting/internal politics reasons.
I would wager that if it were possible to, you’d be able to link a vast majority of valve’s revenue to the purpose of gaming. Reality vs financial reality?
