Hey!, I'm from Valencia, Venezuela(South America). And it's very hot here all year long, sometimes is good, and a lot of times is really annoying.
Last gen was really a pirate battle between Xbox and PS2, and the situation ended like 45% PS2 40% Xbox and 15% GC. The situation now is like 68% X360 27% Wii and 5% PS3, due to piracy of course. You can find all the 3 consoles on stock in almost any game store(the PS3 is more hard to find) and the prices are somewhere like:
X360: 450$(with modchip for the core)
Wii: 430$
PS3: 800$(or even more)
See you around!.
