Europe's economy is way worse than the States, so really, its the two major territories for gaming.  People can talk about the Yen being a problem, but for consumers it's great.  It means their money buys more stuff for less.  But from what I heard, people were more apt to buy one big thing and a few little things this year, as in, maybe a 360 for one kid, and an ipod for another, etc... instead of everyone getting a game console or a TV etc.  Cost of living around the world continues to rise, yet wages fall.

I don't know about that. Don't judge the whole of Europe by looking at a few small gaming markets (greece for example)

I do know.  Keep in mind USA's bad unemployment now is merely the average of a good Euro economy.  And when every country jumps on board the same currency system and money comes from the good country's banks to support the bad ones... everyone suffers.


This has got a bit off topic.
