  • Games sales increased 99% and the revenue 72% in 2012.
  • The average price of the games down to 39.80 Euro.
  • The average price of the consoles is 353 Euro.

  • 45 million brasilians are gamers (2nd biggest in the world)
  • US$ 420 million in 2011
  • 3.1 million units of PS3, 360 and Wii

  • Official games sales increased 149% from Jan 2011 to Jan 2012
  • The official games are 27% more cheaper now (expensive yet)
  • 3.5 million games sold from January to September 2012 (R$350 million revenue... ~US$170 million... 91% up compared to 2011)
  • 644k consoles sold from January to September 2012... 59% up compared to 2011

• FEBRUARY 2012
  • 31% of Brasilians have a console at home (60 milllion?)
  • PlayStation 2 is still the most popular console
  • PlayStation 3 have more maket share but seems like the Xbox 360 is almost tying because the manufacturing of the console here (cheaper)
  • Wii is not mentioned
  • Consoles sales grew 53% in 2011... from 642k units in 2010 to 935k units in 2011
  • The market are migrating from pirated to official but 17% of the sales are official yet

Except for the excuses as to why 360 is nearly tied, well done.

Glad to see Brasil embracing gaming! :)

Interesting to hear, no handhelds mentioned though?

That's not my excuses... it's the articles.

Anyway the prices here: R$1399 PS3 vs R$799 360.

60 million people have consoles at home ?  Wasn't expecting market to be this big.

It's not an excuse. The reason PS2 is still king around here, is piracy.

Where does it say that the PS3 sells more than the 360?

Those growth numbers are insane, in a decade this could be one of the biggest markets, as long as they catch up with the gens and piracy keeps decreasing.

I think it's all consoles combined... Super Nes, Playstation, Playstation 2, etc... at least one console.
