A trillion dollar business suggests a singular wherein a singular could be a single corporation or industry in common usage. Without surrounding context to the contrary it isn't trivial to distinguish the intentions.

  > Game industry. Aside from that being an entire industry as opposed to a single company, are you not aware that BigCo games generally contain a developer console of some sort? Even the ones that don't provide end user access to it still usually have one buried somewhere. Plus many of the dev tools for manipulating assets are either CLI based or have one integrated ...
