Hi, I'm not from mexico... I'm actually from Canada, but I wanted to help clear something up for all you number fanatics. I've read on multiple threads that sales in Mexico is near 0 because they buy them in the states because it's cheaper. Now the reason why this statement bugs me is because it's the same in Canada. Consoles are cheaper in the U.S then in Canada. On top of the fact that taxes in most provinces are as high as 14%. But yet, Canada still manages to sell at a 8%-10% rate (quoted from these forums) to the U.S. sales. Mexico has a population 107,449,525,000. If you only select the top 15% of the population(the rich who can afford consoles) it leaves you with a potential market of 15 million people. That's half of the Canadian population (including the poor)!!! I think a closer estimate should be to calculate Mexico at 4-5% of U.S. Sales NA Sales = US Sales + Canada Sales (8%-10% of US) + Mexico Sales (4%-5% of US)
