In terms of market value there was a report revealing the EU to be a bigger games market already in terms of total value compared to the United States (source: Nielsen). Of course the EU does not include many European countries, but does include the most wealthy ones except for smaller ones like Switzerland, Norway and Iceland.

 

That's related to the currency market fluctuations, mostly. Anyways in a few years when the eastern block improves it's status Europe will sweep away the States in the videogame market. Operating costs should still be higher on Europe tho...
