Favouring is obvious, you earn more money there. Still Sony and MS somehow think it's good business to care about us, to translate games, advertise a lot, etc. And remember that we're not talking about a small country right now. Poland is 6th in EU with 40 mil people - that's more than in Canada and consoles really aren't something people can't afford over here, especially those made by Nintendo. It is a smaller market, but it's growing really fast. And... I mean just look at their webpage. There really is no excuse for Nintendo. They get what they deserve. If you want to EARN money, you have to EARN it. Not just ignore people and hope they'll send you their money.


Problem is you may be 6th in Europe but that doesn't exactly translate to big console sales, here in the UK we have a large population of people who migrated here from Eastern European countries like Poland so I'm wondering how much of that 40m are actually still in Poland because a lot of Eastern Europeans work abroad in other countries. As I mentioned before that region of Europe is also very hardcore PC orientated so the is a fair chance that even with being 6th you'll get much lower console sales while something like Steam must be booming over there, your growth maybe fast but it may not be big enough for it to register against the bigger countries. Nintendo aren't handling the smaller EU countries with the best care yes but I think that's due to the smaller countries not really being on their minds or them ever really being into Nintendo to begin with, I don't know how previous Nintendo consoles have performed there so I don't know.

NOE are based only in one Country in the whole of the EU with a partial office being in the UK so I'd imagine they have a harder job operating then NOA and NCL who have far less regions to deal with around their base.
