Thanks! I did see some AAA game compilers and tools before indeed. But I remember that being very niche and tight knit, small teams. Which is bringing home the bacon, but not compared to making more high level game tools (Unity for instance); unless you are an AAA game dev with very specific needs, you wouldn't bother even looking for those tools because they are so commodity, while high level tools like Unity and Unreal (with all it's add-ons) are not commodity and thus making millions of $.

But yes, you are right; embedded, HPC and gaming are good examples. Thanks for pointing that out.
