Small? Lol

In the UK 62m people buy approx 23m home consoles.

in Japan 127m people buy approx 23m home consoles.

And yes... It's by far the biggest console market in Europe.  France is second with approx 13m, some 10m behind.

The UK is essentially the joint second largest home console market on the planet with Japan this gen.

It's sad that germany is even behind France. germany has the biggest population and the biggest economy in europe, so it should be the biggest market. But somehow videogaming has a bad reputation over here, so it ends up on the third place.

the whole games market is bigger here, someone posted the revenue of french, uk and german market. uk was little bit in front of germany but if you take out all the uk sales which go to other european countries, germany is maybe already the country with the biggest games market in europe if you only look at the domestic market.

but true, gaming doesn't have a good reputation here
