Playstation 3, was the Cheapest Blu-ray reader, so if you had to run a Blu-ray disc on 2006, Playstation 3, was the Cheapest option, and how can you say about Playstation 2, selling 20-25 Millions of units from 2008, to 2012 ?, this is 5-6 Millions per Year, more than Wii U, and Nearly more than Xbox One, even after 6 Years the Playstation 3, and Xbox 360, launched.

 

Tax, have nothing to do with it, do you think that Someone, will buy a Console from 30 Years ago, that they don't want, only because is 200RS$, insteady of buying atleast a Last Gen console, for 600-700RS$ ?, i want to see if the Americans still buying old consoles  even after so many years.

 

People still Import consoles for purchase, but also still buying 30 Years old consoles, on the Dozen of thousands units every year, only because they want to play on the Console.

You want to say that My differents poor, and they cannot purchase a Next Gen, or Previous gen console, because of that they are Stuck with Master System ?, The average Wage is 2000RS$, stores sell Xbox One, nearly for free with 1 Year of EA Acess, for 1200-1400RS$, and Playstation 4, for 1600-1800RS$.

So people still prefer to purchase a 200RS$ system, from 30 years ago only because they don't have Money ?, you Know that Atleast Half of the Brazilians have a Month wage of 6000-8000RS$, don't you ?, the others are More rich, and the minority is Poor, is less than 5-10%.

 

The country have 200 Millions of Citzens, is not because of Tax, or anything like this, is because the console is good, have good games like Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Sonic.

 

Exclusive is the main reasons that Consoles sell this much, the Wii, sold a lot because was the only console that had Motion exclusives, with the Wii Mote, if the Wii, did not had the Wii Sports, that was a Exclusive, do you think that it would have sold 100 Millions of Units ?.

NES didnt try to compete in Brazil. But I beieve they would have done well had they did what Sega did.

Even if PS3 was a cheap Bluray, it was an expensive machine for the average consumer. That allowed 360 to succeed.

I believe a low price is crucial to having success in Brazil. I hear piracy is also pretty rampant there so many just opt for PC. That lowers odds of people going to Xbox and Playstation.

Brazil has a massive population but relatively speaking they dont buy a lot of game consoles.

Master System had objectively shitty versions of SF and MK. Sonic wasnt great either on that system.

Wii sold well because it appealed to casual market. Wii U has great exclusives and has sold horribly.

Wii U, have Anti-Worldwide-costumer's Policy, because of that Wii U, did not sold.

 

The Xbox 360, Was the only console with Piracy for Years, and still the PS3, out-sold Xbox 360, on Brazil.

Is hard to you to believe that a Country, can like more the Sonic Games, than Mario Games ?, Sonic, is the Best gaming mascot of all times, and the Brazil Simply played more Sonic games, than Mario, and Unlike Mario, Sonic, was sucessfull on all source of Midia, Mario, had one of the Worst rated films of All times.

 

Do it hurts you to believe that Exclusives, and Games, is the Number 1 thing that Sell Consoles ?, and not Features ?.

It really makes me Happy that Exclusives still move All the consoles Sales, if Microsoft, make something like Steam Machine, if really enter on the Next Cicle, and if the game will have all the games that are avaliable on PC, and Windows, the "Machine" would sell Much, much less than the Dreamcast, i think that even the Steam Machines, are selling on Low Numbers.
