Africas combined population is around 832 million, if 20% of its people can be afford gaming about 160 million that yeah, why not, the middle class is growing (African countries average growth rate is 6%). Like I said in another post the XBOX 360 was officially launched in SA (Google Joystiq+Xbox 360 launches in South Africa, and be sure to read the hillarious comments too). SA, a population of 48 million sells slightly more consoles than New Zealand, and has a decent gaming & Anime (yes Anime, they have Animax on digital satellite tv) expo called rAge (google it, one of the lead devs of Far Cry 2 even attended). Africa will be a viable market in 20 years tops. Like I said its more advanced than most of you think.
