I'm from France.
So you pretty much already know how it goes. Nintendo and Sony rule the market. Xbox is doing fine, but it doesn't really come close.
The majority of gamers are probably in their mid 30s, if not more, and PC gaming is getting more and more popular since 2-3 years. It has always been, but it's definitely a growing market.
Also, most of us French gamers are stupid. Like, a lot. It's basically the internet in real life. Also, these guys/gals try way too hard to be "cool". You know how it goes, talking about an old classic when they never played it, just because y'know, modern gaming sucks, talking trash on games or companies that try new things, different experiences (like Quantic Dream for example), etc... But they'll still jump on the next AC or CoD when it releases.
But apart from that, the market seems do be doing quite well.
So yeah, in a nutshell, gaming is strong, but the community... Meh. Fortunately, there are still a lot of actual gamers and all around nice people to meet.
Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.
