Gaming does happen in most parts of the world outside the U.S., too;
even if I know that rural U.S. would struggle with high-speed access the
same way a developing country would, if not worse.

My point is, the world has not yet converged on Gigabit capability into
the home. And that goes for the distribution network too. But that's not
going to stop the world from gaming.
