People underestimate this far too often. I believe maybe up to 90% of Commodore 64 and Amiga games were designed in Europe. |
You are right about the developers. But how many is owned by US company or have a US publishers for their games? Nearly all. This is just how the world currently is. In NA, gaming is much more visible in media, than what it is in Europe. So, basically everything makes it's first appearance in USA, since it gives you more advertising and European media, as always, copies its gaming news from US. I have made suggested ioi one feature, that would definately lure europeans, but it would require a lot of work, so we may not see what i suggested.
