(market languages gathered and split by myself) |
Note that China and Korea are massively into online PC gaming and thus their video game console markets are far smaller than their global VG data shows (and France is the world's most console-oriented market for example http://www.newzoo.com/category/infographics/). So VGC is tracking the right 5 major console VG markets. Next addition would be Italy and Spain, Canada, Australia, maybe Brazil or Mexico
The top 12 reflects quite well the 11 major Internet languages (same list as the 10 major wikipedias by traffic but with Korean higher here and the inclusion of Dutch : http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/wikipedia.org and same as online market share http://www.translated.net/en/languages-that-matter?sortBy=languages#results)
