Video Game Sales Analysis

Project Description:

This project was an analysis on video game sales during their year of release in different regions from 1980 to 2020. The data was sourced from a public site: Data Source. I developed a PostrgreSQL database, imported the data (csv file) into the table, and performed a series of queries to analyze the data (see below). I then created interactive data visualizations with Tableau BI Software linked here: Tableau Data Visualizations.

Dashboard key metrics:

• Video game sales performance during release year
• Total sales count and percentage for each region
• Yearly sales from 1980 - 2020
• Sales for top 5 platforms, genres, and publishers
• Filters for year, platform, genre, and publisher
