"The Portuguese market is very specific, and consumers to increase consumption in entertainment 'in your room' as a distraction from the family, as spend more time indoors and less in activities such as cinema, restaurants or travel," added.

 

Thats just what I thought when started to read the article. A lot of people says the crisis afects videogames but i  believe is the other way.

Here in portugal consoles are used primarily for family entertainment for a long time. Just see that the ps2 was the market leader (with more than 90%?) with its games of Buzz / SingStar / PES highly publicized. The PC has been mostly used by players called "core" but have slowly migrated to the consoles in recent times.
