im from mexico, and katsuraji said it was sony land? I dont think so... Actually I only know one person (and I know plenty of people my age, as I live in my school dorms)
I think sony won last generation, but not by that wide of a margin. Piracy got a lot to do with that. xBOX did great last gen because of the same thing. I think xbox had a virtual tie with gamecube, even if gamecube did not have piracy for most of its life, and by the time it was cracked, nobody even modded their console.
I would say gamecube was the big winner last generation because I think the market share was something along the lines of 30% same with xbox and PS2 had something like 40%. Why I think it was the big winner? every game bought was an original. I dont think the other consoles were that healthy regarding to software.
As for current gen, XBOX is market leader, becuase its really cheap. 450 dollars two games included (with current exchange rates 4950 pesos), as opposed to 360 dollars for the Wii with wii sports(something like 4,000 pesos), and PS3 at 860 dollars nothing included (something like 9,500 pesos).
Wii is gaining lots of ground on 360 as we speak, but becuase of the year long lead and the competitive price of the 360 (that is manufactured here in mexico), it will have a rough time overcoming it.
PS3 is as good as dead in mexico
